A thrill & an honour to return to my childhood public school district, Richmond Schools, to provide Moral Courage professional development! How did I become way older than most of the educator-leaders attending? Just… how?? 😳

I used to tell my ex, a former tennis player, that all of life isn’t a win-lose game. She doesn’t have to turn every discussion into a debate. Now, watching #Alcaraz and #Sinner, I’m temporarily in love with win-lose games. An unbelievable match. US Open Tennis

Thx, Cato Institute, for intro’ing my Moral Courage team to these joyful folks: teachers who reconcile viewpoint diversity & social justice instead of caving to a crude binary. Culture warriors are trapped in the either/or mindset. Culture healers are free. They embrace both/and.

Spoke to 500 Hollywood writers about why Moral Courage is valuable in storytelling: it compels you to go off-script and surprise your audiences. Then this guy spoke about comedy in anxious times.👇🏽 Funniest caption wins an autographed copy of “Don’t Label Me.” Propper Daley

Time to decide the winning caption 👇🏽 — and I need your help: A) “Told by the mullahs to choose between Al-lah and Al Franken, Irshad rejected their their crude binary & chose Al-Manji” B) “Another successful match made on NonChristianMingle.com” Is the winner A or B? #Vote

‘Nonviolence doesn’t ask us to do nothing. Of course we must do. But how we do it is crucial. Nonviolence is a way of being that influences the doing.’ — Dr. Vonnetta L. West, senior trainer at The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center’s Beloved Community Leadership Academy. m.youtube.com/watch?v=lyhV4r…

3 simple yet transformative words account for much of the moral authority & strategic brilliance of the civil rights generation. Yet these words have gone missing from the education that advocates & allies receive today. Let me teach them to you on Oct 19/20. 👇🏽The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center

I had a dream… to teach Moral Courage w The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center. Last week, I did. Now let’s bring the art/science of nonviolence to more ppl, esp on this ultra-educational platform. 😆 Lesson 1: To rumble effectively, be humble immediately. Blame neuroscience! bit.ly/3FbllBP

Forget lectures, theories & seminars. Pluralism -- diversity of viewpoint, not just diversity of appearance -- needs an anthem, a mascot, a way to get kids singin', dancin', listenin' & empathizin'. Voila. Teachers, get involved: moralcourage.com/plurals. youtu.be/hRdT1IQNyDo
