    Our vision for Big Ideas Fest has always been to break through the comfort zone of typical education conferences—with the goal of creating a space to empower educators, catalyze collaboration, and spur innovation. Earlier this year we had not imagined that in December, we would be reeling from the impact of a growing backlash against tolerance, equal rights for all, truth-seeking, and freedom of expression.
