Sharing our Reflection by Yvonne Sugimura https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e Now that you've shared, take a moment to summarize one of the following: What resonated with you the most? What challenges or adversities have you faced, and how did you overcome it? What is your "why?" en-us 2022-03-04 04:58:20 UTC 2022-03-28 17:12:44 UTC hello@padlet.com Thelma's story resonated with me because our stories are all so unique and define where we are and how we got there. https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100947059 2022-03-18 00:02:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100947059 https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100947222 Representation is key.]]> 2022-03-18 00:02:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100947222 Be Resilient https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948214 2022-03-18 00:03:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948214 "You can't leave footprints if you are tiptoeing." https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948278 2022-03-18 00:03:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948278 https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948315 I'm glad we are represented!  We need more Asians in Education leadership.

Failure to succeed. We must take failure as a means to find a solution to the challenge that we faced. ysugimura https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948401 2022-03-18 00:03:52 UTC https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948401 What resonated with me? https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948553 Although the data we reviewed was not new information, it really gave me a new sense of purpose in the representation of AAPI leadership in education.

We need to change this for the next generation. We need to create those seats at the table. https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948654 2022-03-18 00:04:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948654 Advocacy ucdgrad https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948675 Be bold in advocating for yourself and the voices of others.]]> 2022-03-18 00:04:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948675 gkudsi https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100948832 I enjoyed hearing from Thelma--truly inspirational leader, as a fellow Filipina leader and educator.  It is nice to see others who look like you in educational leadership positions.

I wonder if there is any correlation with the fact that not a lot of folks want to go into teaching (and subsequently, leadership) because of the low pay. It would be good to see how many API teachers are in California...

We need to show be present set an example to future that we can be leaders too. https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100949404 2022-03-18 00:04:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100949404 The struggle to break the ceiling for AAPI students and leader continues. To have a seat at the table, we have to be invited in the room. To be invited, we need to be visible and not silent. Once at the table, we need to have that voice of advocacy roaring. We need to break the AAPI silence https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100949421 2022-03-18 00:04:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100949421 https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100949446 2022-03-18 00:04:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ysugimura/a3dqvr1d0c0mik4e/wish/2100949446 When Thelma talked about the treatment of minorities years ago and how it seems how little has changed.

We all know Leadership MATTERS, and REPRESENTATION MATTERS!!!
