Last weekend, my friend Wing and I drove down to DC for the Teach For America Alumni Summit. It was massively inspiring and overwhelming and illuminating—John Legend performed several times, and I got to sit in on panels with Michelle Rhee, Joel Klein, Geoffrey Canada, Malcolm Gladwell, Gloria Steinem, John Lewis, James Carville, and Amanda Ripley, among others.
However, I think my proudest moment of the weekend was when Wing and I, while bored en route, took to Twitter to entertain ourselves. It became something of a trending topic amongst summit attendees, and eventually got picked up by Eduwonk. Let it never be said that I never helped publicize “the movement.”
