A1 I wanted to cry. I know educators in Charlottesville @irasocol @pammoran and I reached out to them best I knew how. #resiliencechat

Bhsteeler Aug 14 @ 10:13 PM EDT

A1: not surprised when you allow the general discourse to deteriorate to the current level violence was inevitable #resiliencechat

Q2: What kind of conversations/dialogue have you had--and with whom--around what happened in Charlottesville? #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:15 PM EDT

Good point, but I couldn't stop thinking, "Gee, isn't this what my grandparents escaped from?" #resiliencechat

I thought the same thing! #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

JeremyDBond Aug 14 @ 10:16 PM EDT

Wasn't thinking of discourse but of an empowered ideology that's not supposed to be empowered. Wonder where they'll be next. #resiliencechat

In reply to @JeremyDBond, @Bhsteeler

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:17 PM EDT

When I stopped wanting to cry, I started feeling angry. My grandparents left Eastern Europe 100 years ago. #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:18 PM EDT

Not sure how to turn this young man around, but maybe we could try to prevent this from happening again. #resiliencechat

A2: Echo chamber quite frankly do not know anyone who thinks the current alt right movement provides any answers #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:18 PM EDT

Would love to know if there are lurkers in #resiliencechat. Interested to know who is out there.

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:18 PM EDT

Wondering the same thing. This all should have been addressed decades ago. #resiliencechat

In reply to @JeremyDBond, @Bhsteeler

JeremyDBond Aug 14 @ 10:18 PM EDT

A2) With family and coworkers, and a couple of others. Talked of why, and inevitably of 45's (lack of) response. #resiliencechat

Q3: What do you do--or what can we do--to make sure Ss are not frightened by current events? #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:21 PM EDT

A2 Been tweeting up a storm. Been tweeting about why my grandparents came here. Why I need to hold my ground. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:22 PM EDT

It is interesting how we are using social media in times like these. #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

Bhsteeler Aug 14 @ 10:22 PM EDT

A3: I always start with how do you feel about the event, let them dictate the direction of dialogue #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:23 PM EDT

I think that is smart. #resiliencechat

In reply to @Bhsteeler

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:23 PM EDT

I really needed it yesterday and the day before. Too much going on. Too many raw emotions. #resiliencechat

In reply to @saratruebridge

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:24 PM EDT

Yes. I know of a lot of ppl who are just turning off the news. It is getting overwhelming to many. #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:25 PM EDT

There are times where I just sit in disbelief that this is happening. #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:25 PM EDT

Like I have said. If I can survive cancer, I can survive Trump. And that includes his white nationalist followers. #resiliencechat

In reply to @saratruebridge

ResiliencyGuy - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:25 PM EDT

A2 #resiliencechat I think we have not yet processed he meaning of these actions. It is quite scary when you really think about it!

Talk about resilience... #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:26 PM EDT

I totally agree. #resiliencechat

Sharing this with the #resiliencechat folks. How I want to be.

TimFullerton Aug 13 @ 8:10 PM EDT

This is what a hero looks like.

ResiliencyGuy - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:28 PM EDT

A3 For students, I think it will depend on their age and awareness. We must focus on making our school's safe places first! #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:29 PM EDT

Putting out a call to #CharlottesvilleCurriculum and #Edchat --join in #resiliencechat NOW to talk abt how we can address the current events

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:30 PM EDT

Q4: How should we tch abt Nazis, Neo-Nazis, Confederates, White Supremacists, etc. and what drives them? #resiliencechat Resources to share?

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:31 PM EDT

There are resources out there for Ps and Ts. Here is one: https://t.co/jyIUBVVyKq Do you know of others to share? #resiliencechat

A4: the common denominator is all these groups have superiority complexes and lack tolerance #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:33 PM EDT

A4 We need to make sure that students are well versed in both American history and world history. I learned in HS. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:33 PM EDT

Good point! #resiliencechat

In reply to @Bhsteeler

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:33 PM EDT

And critical thinking skills, too. Can't stress this enough. #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:34 PM EDT

I think critical thinking skills came naturally to me. But doesn't come naturally to a lot of people. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:35 PM EDT

...and social emotional skills as well as an understanding of the unity of life--that we are all one. #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:35 PM EDT

Also my parents were both teachers. I think I naturally learned how to think for myself. #resiliencechat

ResiliencyGuy - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:36 PM EDT

#resiliencechat its deeper than a lack of tolerance #hate appears to feed their internal weakness & they seek to confirm misguided thoughts

Bhsteeler Aug 14 @ 10:33 PM EDT

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:36 PM EDT

That's not learned all at once. Takes years. But we can point kids in the right direction. #resiliencechat

In reply to @saratruebridge

JeremyDBond Aug 14 @ 10:37 PM EDT

I don't disagree of course. I just wonder how much that knowledge from school affects what we choose to do later. #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:37 PM EDT

They were. My dear ol' Daddio taught me how to be honest, ethical and compassionate. My mom taught pragmatism. #resiliencechat

In reply to @saratruebridge

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:38 PM EDT

My mom was the tough one. She wasn't emotional like my dad was. He was a sensitive soul. Like me. #resiliencechat

In reply to @saratruebridge

JeremyDBond Aug 14 @ 10:38 PM EDT

So many of them but I hadn't seen that one yet. Thanks! #resiliencechat

Q5: What have you done that demonstrates your courage and commitment to stand up against hate or violence? #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:39 PM EDT

Interesting to contemplate. 1968 taught me a lot. Nothing really to do with school or teachers. Paying attention. #resiliencechat

In reply to @JeremyDBond

Bhsteeler Aug 14 @ 10:39 PM EDT

Living in an area lacking cultural diversity, it is easy to claim tolerance of non existent diversity #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:40 PM EDT

Paying attention and being self-aware--if we can do those two things...#resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah, @JeremyDBond

JeremyDBond Aug 14 @ 10:40 PM EDT

A3) To insert the parents' role in here: Such subjects needn't be tackled alone. Encourage discussion in the safety of home. #resiliencechat

In reply to @Bhsteeler

A5: grew up in a much more diverse environment than I teach in, talk frequently with Ss about those experiences #resiliencechat

Yes, it's important to bring those experiences forward. #resiliencechat

Q6: What is something you/your school/district can do--that it hasn't been doing--to counter hate and violence? #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Aug 14 @ 10:45 PM EDT

I had the opposite experience.In '68 almost every kid's parents were voting for https://t.co/keFNrQ4pHi about frightening. #resiliencechat

A5: grew up in a much more diverse environment than I teach in, talk frequently with Ss about those experiences #resiliencechat

Bhsteeler Aug 14 @ 10:45 PM EDT

A6: expanding dialogue and training for LGBTQ 🏳️‍🌈 is a current focus in Alberta #resiliencechat

ResiliencyGuy - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:46 PM EDT

I like to think that my district is doing a great deal in his area, though we could take the lead with action across schools #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:47 PM EDT

Can you give any examples of what type of action? #resiliencechat

In reply to @ResiliencyGuy

ResiliencyGuy - Moderator Aug 14 @ 10:48 PM EDT

Thinking about school teams coming together to shake hands prior to events, shared concerts, doing things together. #resiliencechat

JeremyDBond Aug 14 @ 10:48 PM EDT

A6) TALK about it. From Day 1. Hate is what some kids live every day, in and outside of school. Schools shouldn't suppress. #resiliencechat
