Will Larkins: Keynote Speech at Harvard Law School's Students Speak Youth Summit 2022
Will Larkins, a 17-year-old student leader, organizer, activist and high school student, delivers the keynote speech at Harvard Law School's 2022 Students Speak Youth Summit. Will spoke about the implications of the Don't Say Gay bill on queer youth and what student organizers are doing on the ground to counteract it.
Will is the Co-founder and President of Winter Park High School's Queer Student Union, an organization created to protect and empower LGBTQIA+ students who face discrimination, hatred, and bullying at school. Will organized and lead the “Say Gay Anyway” walkout at Winter Park High School where over 500 students participated, making national headlines. In February, they testified against the “Don’t Say Gay or be LGBTQIA+” bill in the Florida Senate Appropriations Committee and worked alongside groups such as the Florida Student Power Network and the Coalition for Transgender Liberation to write amendments to anti-diversity legislation, for which they then presented to Florida Senators. Will was recently awarded the Freedom From Religion Foundation’s Catherine Fahringer Student Activist Award after having their essay about growing up queer published digitally and in print in the New York Times.

Whole School - The Importance of Community
มุมมอง 23K5 ปีที่แล้ว
Trauma sensitivity requires a whole-school effort. • Strong community support can reduce the severity of trauma symptoms. • Schools are communities for children. • Children need to feel safe and connected to adults and peers everywhere in the school-in the classroom, the cafeteria, the hallway, the special activities, the bus-not just in one program or with one teacher. Moreover, addressing tra...

really informative
excellent reminder of children's differences
Great information
Joel this a wonderful training. Thank you for this.
Good stuff!
Videos were very helpful to understand how the different traumas can impact our students.
How about a teacher being able to communicate that a certain behaviour is wrong and if you are angry with the behaviour of a class of rowdy students, they feel victimised?
Special education teachers are often the ones introducing the trauma in the first place through their practices like seclusion and restraint. Then they blame the kid and cry on TV about getting hurt at work. The majority of violence in special education is reactive abuse
i love that he mentioned the body language
Hi thank you for this . I'm in Quebec, Canada and we don't talk about this . I've been researching this on my own because I'm dealing with special care children who come from a lot of adversity. I have a child in my classroom who is extremely hyper vigilant he is unable to sit still he always has to clean and rearrange his environment. He has rapid mood shifts and has a very harsh inner dialogue. He frequently breaks his pencils when it's writing time and talks a lot without raising his hand and cutting me off. He demands a lot of connexion . I really care and want to help him but it's difficult because I have 7 other students who get irritated by him . I'm pretty good in Staying emotionnally regulated and kind and patient but my students (10-12 yo) get irritated and then my student feels validated in his inner narrative that " every one hates him " because of their reaction. I would need help and my school is NOT trauma informed so they will not see his behaviour through the trauma lense . Please can you guide me to books or training i cam do online so I can help my student ? Thank you!!
I have family members with ADHD and it can be truly dabilitating
Thank you for the information.
I have to wonder what the data would show post-pandemic in terms of these traumatic experiences. Time for a new study of this caliber.
weve got to listen to little details to get a broad viw
very informative video.
All students have different needs and this is an important reminder.
Informative and essential
Can’t seem to find the words to truly express my gratitude for this video. Lump in my throat powerful.
Important to watch and monitor students as they develop their coping skills.
Useful information about ADHD.
Wow 🤩 powerful.
I've been researching this and there is CRT and Woke crap going on. This makes me nervous. Also creates chance for teacher student sexual relationships.
I've researched this there is CRT and woke crap going on
your surprise at these numbers has been mirrored throughout society which is why many at risk aren't believed, heard or helped !
I really like this video. It is very informative.
i like the video
Joe, you do such a beautiful job making these important connections and how we can move forward from here. Thank you!
We need to be informed and supportive of our students.
Treating kids with the kindness and respect they deserve.
Shed some light on ADHD...interesting
this is just what our schools need!
so in other words more like Montessori schools
He is fantastic ! I love his comment about the traditional approach of of schools developing programs that are manualized. This is such a common approach and frankly one that does not support long term conditions for successful trauma informed implementation.
Student safety is first and foremost. If students do not feel safe, they will be in a constant mode of hypervigilance. This will act as a barrier all day everyday to learning, regulating and developing healthy coping skills.
I really enjoy this presenter. He has a way to bring his experiences and connect in a " real world" manner. I really appreciate his understanding and explanatiom of what can look like ADHD.
Love love love his comment that what is good for one student, is good for all students ? I especially appreciated the question he posted about whether or not our actions help students feel connected. Too often disciplinary measures in schools ( suspension/expulsion) only aid in disconnecting and disenfranchising students even more than what they already feel.
Yes, yes, and yes !! Everything he said ! I most appreciate his comment regarding the need for " a whole school effort/ culture." Changes simply will not happen if this is not done.
Thank you for posting this.
it is important to watch and engage with the students that seem unaffected by the trama.
Thank you good listen

I like that: the whole school staff becomes sensitive and able to address the child rather than sending him to a “specialist” down the hall.
Excellent info. Thank you
