It was an honor to speak @ the #Texas #Humanities event, Teaching Edgar Allan Poe. #JerryKennedy, #ColemanHutchison, #JohnGruesser & I talked about all things #Poe, but most importantly got to hear from #teachers throughout #Texas who are doing heroic work in the classroom. They need our support in dealing with a state that doesn't pay them enough, that doesn't support their teaching aspirations, that is in the grip of #bookbanning and #MomsforLiberty who take away the liberty of kids to read.
