I’m not an apple that fell, I stand on my trees’ highest branches. The fight’s easier from here. #BlackTeacherPipeline

Imagine my pride as a 13-year old youth living in Qom, Iran and this stamp being officially published. I was also extremely proud about the programs that my Mama and our aunt Mama Shakurah and others were leading in Iran informing people 1/2 way around the world about Brother Shaheed Malcolm, El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz words and work! @theshabazzcenter @ilyasahshabazz by @selmekki

Where it began for me… #NidhamuSasa, meeting Dr Martin Ryder, the Assoc. of Black School Administrators (ABSA), The Fellowship: Black Male Educators for Social Justice, Male Educators of Color (MEOC), and, of course my dope parents, teachers and the activist community they raised me in. #BMEC2022 #WeNeedBlackTeachers #BlackTeacherPipeline #SchoolToActivismPipeline @centerblacked taken in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania by @selmekki

The #BMEC2026 room is officially full. But we’re not leaving anyone out of this conversation. Due to overwhelming demand, in-person registration for our 9th Annual Black Men in Education Convening reached capacity. Life happens: schedules, travel, budgets. That’s why we’re opening up a Virtual Streaming Pass, so you can tune in from anywhere. Your pass unlocks select programming each day, including the Sunday, November 15 fireside chat with @nikolehannahjones and Dr. @chrisemdin. Still want to be in the room? Virtual Pass holders get priority on the in-person waitlist when spots open up. It's happening November 13–15, 2026 in Philadelphia + online. Register via the Linktree in our bio. Please note: A Virtual Pass does not guarantee in-person attendance. #WeNeedBlackTeachers This image is a promotional flyer for a "Fireside Chat" panel featuring Nikole Hannah-Jones and Christopher Emdin Ph.D. The event, part of #BMEC2026, will take place in Philadelphia, PA from November 13-15, 2026. The flyer includes a logo for the Center for Black Educator Development and a call to register for virtual streaming access. by @selmekki

Who was the first person who told you, "You'd be a great teacher"? For a lot of educators, it happened in elementary school. For many Black men, it took until adulthood, and only after another career didn't work out. Our Founder & CEO @selmekki and @educatorsrising CEO Jeanie Lee wrote for @the_74 about why that sentence matters so much, and why Black boys hear it least. Read the new opinion piece via our Linktree. A person stands in front of a whiteboard with writings "AZ/US History" and "Advisor." They are wearing glasses, a light blue shirt, and a bow tie. The bottom text on the image reads: "The 74. Male Teachers Say Mentors Got Them There. For Black Men, the Need’s Even Greater. October 15, 2026. by @selmekki
