I've seen conversation in @ncte and #DisruptText about historical trauma in the literacy classroom. I created a resource for everyone in the hopes of fundraising for local Bronx organizations.

A big thank you to @djolder and @NotNikyatu for their generosity and genius.

Here's the Biliography.

If you like the resource, please donate to the Kingsbridge Heights Community Center and/or The Concourse House. Thank you again to @djolder and @NotNikyatu. You're brilliant and I'm grateful to learn from you.

IF YOU

- send me a donation screenshot for a Bronx organization, OR
- send me proof you completed any National Child Traumatic Stress Network Learning Center workshop ( http://nctsn.org )

I will talk to you and all your colleagues about trauma-informed literacy! Free!

I've generally retired from consulting for cash. It isn't safe for Black teachers and God didn't built me to bite my tongue.

BUT if you donate to a Bronx organization OR take a NCTSN workshop I will JOYFULLY consult with you and all your teacher friends AND share a booklist!

Thank you to @caitteach for being the bestest friend anyone could ask for. @AlexSVenet, @_rhiannonkim, @ArleneCasimir, @addisonmduane, @latoyadixon5, and the rest of the trauma crew for doing exhausting work so kindly.

@pernilleripp for being so kind. @sophgermain for supporting me! @nenagerman, she didn't know I was doing this shit, but I want to be her when I grow up. @MisterMinor for raising his little sister bold and hardheaded.

my goal is to raise $100 and/or get 5 certificates of completion for National Child Traumatic Stress Network workshops. The learning center is free!

They have digital recordings and resources for educators. I've also learned so much from their resources for clinicians.

I'm also gonna tag @HeinemannPD and @HeinemannPub in this. We're raising money for Bronx community-based organizations and taking workshops about trauma! Please share.
