I Stand with Ahmed - the Economic Importance of STEM Education

• #IStandWithAhmed lesson: Curiosity is for white kids
• Includes words from Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein at MIT, whose Medium posts I have linked to in the past.
• She also made an appearance on MSNBC
• Christian Science Monitor: Why #IStandWithAhmed is about more than a Muslim boy in Texas (+video)
• Discusses the impact of the School-to-prison pipeline

I saw another article that included quotes from Dr. Lee (@dnlee5). I can't find the link to share, but I *think* I'm seeing a trend in more "ask the people most affected" reporting. If so, I think that's a good thing.

Professionalization

Summer 2009, as part of my Master's program, I took a class on Engineering and Globalization. Those who know me or have followed my blog over the years should recognize this as a natural extension of my interest in international affairs and technology.
