ICYMI a #conservative #politician was shot and #killed while speaking at a #Utah #university today to the backdrop of a #shooting in a Colorado #highschool.

The #evidence is clear. When young people don’t learn to navigate big #emotions in healthy ways, they fall victim to #dangerous ones

Imagine what could change if it were a #presidential #priority to advance the science of learning so all students are seen, served, and safe to learn in U.S. schools.

IMO that would be in our #national interest.

I had the privilege of sitting down with Rae at #Hyperfocus Understood.org to talk about the alarming and harmful rise of the 'R' word and what science can teach us about why - and how - to interrupt it.
