This year, Community was a good first step, but it was executed awfully - there was very little nuance if any. It also glossed over issues and misrepresented them.

To do better, actually try to make the lessons look genuine and less corporate. If you're going to teach about systemic racism, then actually do it. Don't just say "racism exists and it's bad", actually explain how the government has oppressed people of colour for centuries and teach us how to bring about change.

My identity is something that I have become much more proud of this past year, I feel as though I've connected to it in a different way after realizing how much fun it was to partake in our usual festivities pre-covid.

I see my identity as loyal and kind. Through these global events, I have become more aware of my surroundings and have become more comfortable with speaking out about certain topics. I hope to bring kindness into the community so people won't have to feel left out or discriminated against.

To me, a socially just school would prevent students from promoting harmful and violent ideas (Blue lives matter for instance) and would teach students about the nuanced issues community tried to talk about but effectively. Any kind of bigotry would not be allowed - freedom of speech does not cover hate speech and schools are allowed to limit freedom of speech. Students making bigoted remarks would be punished and taught how to be more inclusive and respectful.

How do I see my identity?  How has it changed from the global/national events this year?  What do I hope to bring into the community in the future?    Think in terms of a Venn Diagram, but use any medium to express yourself!

What would a socially just and anti-racist school look like to me? What actions have I taken to create social and racial justice in my school, in my community? What can I do in the future?
