@GovDanMcKee I would like to say a big thank U for thinking of the poor & those struggling with high energy rate hikes struggling to make ends meet those unable to put food on their tables Your thoughts of D poor is palpable with your propose 20% raise 4 heads of state agencies
This is UNREAL! Republican Rep. Paul Sherrell proposed Tennessee amend their death penalty to include HANGING by tree during a House Criminal Justice Committee meeting! How in 2023 can a government official have such a grotesque suggestion leave his mouth?! 🎥: @TheTNHoller
What if we acknowledged the race and cultural heritage of our students not as a deficit but as beautiful, real, relevant, and important?
Super important in understanding trauma
Besides the many issues with standardized testing. Most students have no idea what they missed on the tests and teachers don't either. And by time they get results students have moved on to next grade. Making it useless to evaluate teachers & districts too.
A kid said something funny in class today and the entire room, myself included, burst out laughing and could not stop for several very long, very joyous minutes. I was in tears. That won’t show up in any data sheet, but it matters too.
Districts or schools that remove students from physical education, music, Arts, or other classes to remediate them in other areas, have no idea of the immediate and long term damage they are doing to these students. These may be classes that help them love school.

NEW: RI lawmakers OK'd $30 million in federal ARPA funds for nursing homes back on June 23, mostly to help direct care workers So why isn't the money out the door? "This bureaucratic delay is unjust and completely unwarranted!" argues @VincentMarzull2 wpri.com/news/politics-…

This is a reminder that self diagnosis of autism is valid, especially for Black people. The testing is expensive, can take years, and is inherently racially biased.

Goodbye silver IKEA desk lamp. Not a stand-out, show-off kinda lamp but by god I did not change that bulb once since I bought it my first week in LA. Since 1997 he’s been with me through ups & downs and just today -out of the blue- he dies. I haven’t cried this hard in years.
"They were simply" is so fucking reductive to the impact of being called a n*gger as a young child. Who gives a flying fuck about the intention? The harm is what needs to be the focus ..tf
@kyris_d @keatingssixth @theericklouis racism requires intention. it is naive to say that EVERY single 2nd and 3rd grader knew what the words they were saying meant… they were simply repeating what they heard in the household without knowing at all what they are saying. doesn’t make a kid racist.
@TalbertSwan Shannon Sharpe is out of touch with reality. Fact is, little racists grow up to be big racists, until/unless they learn differently. Until/unless this happens, they will continue to be miniature racists!
On Friday I was told I didn't get a fellowship. 😢 But this morning, I received this. ☺️ The paper was published late last year. @JFTR_NCFR This paper was made possible, in part, by the W.T. Grant Foundation.
@prntgdcolonized I have a student I talk to regularly who had some very anti-black ideas early this semester. His mind has been blown multiple times with examples of systemic ways black Americans have been denied opportunities to develop generational wealth. He's come around significantly.
@prntgdcolonized It's like they forgot how they accumulated the wealth. Racism made you rich, but unlearning means not parting with it? K
It's wild that people really don't think wealth distribution is part of antiracism work.
@butchewing 100% agree. And this is a huge problem with younger people coming out of schools. They think knowledge equals experience and it doesn't.
@HannahBerrelli I agree that the effects should be studied more. It’s just a waste of taxpayer dollars to imprison people for it. Alcoholism is far more dangerous and there is no legal consequences unless you drive drunk
7 years ago, I wrote a small piece about a man who was falsely accused of a crime. A few days later, I got an anonymous telling me to look up the woman they called “the evilest white woman on earth.” What happened next is the absolute wildest story you’ll ever hear A thread
@michaelharriot It’s White women like her that have told lies that ruined or ended Black lives throughout history. That’s why the “Not all of us” White women are so intolerable. Thank you for this and for all of the amazing work you’ve done and continue to do. 🙏🏽
National media wasn’t even on this story. But I just looked where they told me to look. The only reason I thought about this was that when I woke up this morning, one of them had texted me this: “Look what we did… No one else. Just us.” kansaspublicradio.org/2024-04-16/not…
In all my years in a testing grade, I have yet to see a single test passage centering the language, culture or experiences of urban Black or Brown youth & their communities. I can only assume this is by design.
@smerrill777 @edutopia It's bad. I think that it's coming from #mentalhealth and parents #mentalhealth I also think the connection between hard work and comfortable career is gone.
@smerrill777 @edutopia IMO student apathy stems from feeling no purpose behind their education. Students don't care about learning to earn a good job, or just for the sake of learning, because: they can't afford a house anyway; the climate is changing significantly; their election votes feel pointless
