I don’t know if it’s obvious… It probably is coz u know me… But this list is intentionally different from what I think the Chronicle would normally choose. All lists are exclusive but I made a point of creating a list of edtech ppl that were diverse. Many women, some non-US, some POCs. If lists and rock-stardom are inevitable, I reserve the right of ppl like myself and those on that list to be recognized for what we do and have done in the field 🙂 And I sense that if more people nominate similarly we may stand a chance. Of course it excludes many great others. But if I didn’t nominate these ppl, isn’t it possible they will only make a regular list of mostly White American men who don’t really challenge the status quo?
