reminding you that, while we didn't cover "how do i work through a coup" in the faculty development workshop (FWIW my answer is "don't", seek breath and togetherness instead), we DO have the gift of trauma-informed pedagogy. here are a few links for the coming days/weeks/months:

reading or listening to Mays Imad's work (@lrningsanctuary) always helps me so much and is a great place to start. this interview with @Bali_Maha is medicine.

"Hope can be a passive gesture: “let’s hope it all turns out OK.” But hope can also be active, as a resistive act of defiance, self-empowerment & enduring resilience even in the face of uncertainty."
here's a slightly different framing from @bethmcmurtrie , one that I think has the very, very useful addition of "don't take things personally". we're all whole humans. what your students are doing (or not doing) right now is often very little about you. https://t.co/TQrY6tAxKH
if a video (or just its audio) is more your speed today, here's a fantastic UC Berkeley program that critically centers racial trauma, and how we can teach in the context of racial violence (of which our classrooms are a part):

and here's @karenraycosta (another key follow!) on the #TeaforTeaching podcast interviewed by @john_kane_osw and Rebecca Mushtare about trauma-informed teaching. listen while you make lunch or while you go for a walk this afternoon:

the @WabashTeaches podcast is a balm for the teaching and learning soul. today i needed Nancy Lynne Westfield talking with Amy Oden about breath and breathing in the classroom.

"The physical act of breathing makes a big difference in our ability to think...so where do we have room to breathe? Where do we create that? Not just expect people to do that on their own time, but actually see it as a value,"

Breathe with your students. It is so powerful.
White people, we also *need* this episode on white rage with Melanie Harris & @drjenharvey. American politics is white rage. Yesterday was a death cry emanating from the very heart of this country. How do we teach given that?

Make time to listen:

No matter what, I encourage you to be human w/ your students & allow them the same dignity in return. Help them breathe. Stretch together. It takes 5 min & is more important than your content. Tell them this is hard but that you have hope, and then cultivate that hope with them.

राम-रावण युद्ध समाप्त हो चुका था। जगत को त्रास देने वाला रावण अपने कुटुम्ब सहित नष्ट हो चुका था।श्रीराम का राज्याभिषेक हुआ और अयोध्या नरेश श्री राम के नेतृत्व में चारों दिशाओं में शन्ति थी।
अंगद को विदा करते समय राम रो पड़े थे ।हनुमान को विदा करने की शक्ति तो राम में थी ही नहीं ।


माता सीता भी हनुमान को पुत्रवत मानती थी। अत: हनुमान अयोध्या में ही रह गए ।राम दिनभर दरबार में, शासन व्यवस्था में व्यस्त रहते थे। संध्या को जब शासकीय कार्यों में छूट मिलती तो गुरु और माताओं का कुशल-मंगल पूछ अपने कक्ष में जाते थे। परंतु हनुमान जी हमेशा उनके पीछे-पीछे ही रहते थे ।


उनकी उपस्थिति में ही सारा परिवार बहुत देर तक जी भर बातें करता ।फिर भरत को ध्यान आया कि भैया-भाभी को भी एकांत मिलना चाहिए ।उर्मिला को देख भी उनके मन में हूक उठती थी कि इस पतिव्रता को भी अपने पति का सानिध्य चाहिए ।

एक दिन भरत ने हनुमान जी से कहा,"हे पवनपुत्र! सीता भाभी को राम भैया के साथ एकांत में रहने का भी अधिकार प्राप्त है ।क्या आपको उनके माथे पर सिन्दूर नहीं दिखता?इसलिए संध्या पश्चात आप राम भैया को कृप्या अकेला छोड़ दिया करें "।
ये सुनकर हनुमान आश्चर्यचकित रह गए और सीता माता के पास गए ।


माता से हनुमान ने पूछा,"माता आप अपने माथे पर सिन्दूर क्यों लगाती हैं।" यह सुनकर सीता माता बोलीं,"स्त्री अपने माथे पर सिन्दूर लगाती है तो उसके पति की आयु में वृद्धि होती है और वह स्वस्थ रहते हैं "। फिर हनुमान जी प्रभु राम के पास गए ।
