June is the month in which Tom Skinner was born 82 years ago and passed away 30 years ago. At a time of declining civility, rising racial terror, political upheaval, and threats to democracy, there is much that people of faith and diverse races today can learn from Tom Skinner’s teaching and practice of racial healing and commitment to biblical social justice.

Having spent 26years within the early years education and care sector, i have seen a great deal of change. How the sector and the workforce who commit to it day in day out are valued is always worthy of a lively debate. Fundamentally the sector, amongst many important things, provides key infrastructure within the UK for young carers in early childhood. As Dr Nathan Archer, Dr Fufy Demissie and Professor Sally Pearse state in this article, nurseries and settings are 'well placed as social hubs, civic spaces and centres for community cohesion. It also appears that these settings are increasingly stepping into spaces left vacant by services which have seen a reduction in public' funding.' The early years education and care sector has an imperative role to play in the early support and identification of young carers, yet how can they achieve this consistently when they themselves are under supported and undervalued? The interdisciplinary focus groups will explore this debate during the first strand of the Young Carers in Early Childhood research programme. Keep following as details of how to get involved will be shared very soon. #youngcarersearlychildhood #Pengreen #ShapingUs #Carerstrust University of Plymouth

Amazing project! We at Rows.com are working our assess off to build the world's best spreadsheet. We know how hard it is to compete with world-class products. Puter.com is on a league of its own, trying to do the same for the cloud computer: build the cloudOS where you create and publish your docs & apps. I have seen it grow from almost nothing, and my intuition tells me that this rate of progress is the precursor of beautiful things: - they ship a lot of product — an ambitious product — faster than *any* other company I know. - they open-sourced the platform *and* took in contributions from the community, in code, content, bugs... - the community seems impressed enough that a lot of them are studying what's under the hood and investing time on it. - they aren't stopping (as an angel, I know their path will continue to have lots of experiments of unique new features). I am green with envy, seeing Puter makes me work much harder! always be next to the best.
This is incredibly surreal: Puter might be the (or one of the) fastest-growing commercial open-source projects in history!

I love encouraging exploration over explanation in the classroom. Check out this example of staging a compelling (ie: essential) question and the complexity of responses the question elicits through the rest of the lesson #facinghistory
On this day in 1924, James Baldwin, a writer, activist, and luminary, was born in New York. A century later, his writings continue to inspire and encourage important conversations in classrooms and beyond. Using a quotation from Baldwin, educators can help students explore the contradictions and complexities within US history.

YES! YES! YES! President Niemi. LOVE MY NEW JOB! "...Not only are our students deeply interested in understanding the conflicts and complexities of the world, they also demonstrate the desire to act—to engage in discussion with us, to find out what they can do to help make change. To be that change. And we—faculty and staff alike—are uniquely equipped to help our students, and by extension our community, learn about these things, for what is public higher education if not a place where we can demonstrate how respectful civil discourse happens? A place where hard things can be debated, where people can disagree and still learn? A place where democracy is practiced without fear? Higher education is the space where we are supposed to make powerful, thoughtful, respectful noise. Our students deserve to hear it and to be part of it." Nancy Niemi

New on the blog! Faith Boser, one of our Researchers this summer, writes about the influences that heritage places had on her growing up, including on her curiosity and identity. Faith says: "As we become adults, these spaces continue to have significance in our lives, connect us to our identities and communities, and build an attachment to the places around us."

Third-year Ph.D. student Jade Marcum seeks to understand the continuous neglect of Black cemeteries in the South. Her dissertation tries to answer the question: “If the civil rights movement was as successful as people like to believe it was, why are we still so severely segregated in death? And why are Black cemeteries still receiving less funding and less care?” Learn more about Marcum's research in the full article: https://buff.ly/42Ly47U
