About Cornelius Minor:

Acclaimed educator, author, and speaker Cornelius Minor is a fierce advocate for equity in education, Minor works with teachers, staff, and school leaders nationally and internationally to help them reflect on their practices and eliminate barriers for their students. Cornelius is also a lead staff developer for Teachers College Reading and Writing Project and he uses his many professional platforms—social media, podcasts, workshops, and conference presentations—to encourage improvements in the classroom from the point of view of both an educator and a parent.
