Had a wonderful evening teaching the Modjeska Simkins School--we had the chance to show the 1980's doc about Ms. Simkins' life, *Making a Way Out of No Way,* with documentarian and journalist extraordinaire Beryl Dakers joining us! Great night. @SCProNet
What she said.
Fantastic class!
Greatest scene & writing of all time #MontyPython

This morning, I showed the documentary *I Am Somebody,* about the 1969 Charleston Hospital Workers' strike. It was really important to me to show that to students that are largely not only from South Carolina, but many of whom are from the Lowcountry or even Charleston itself.
A great night at the Modjeska School about labor and civil rights during the New Deal and World War II eras! @SCProNet
This fall, I got an e-mail from a guy named JM Simpson who'd read things I'd written about homelessness. He mentioned he was a photojournalist in Olympia and that he'd been photographing the unhoused population there. He wanted to share some work with me . . . (1)
Had a fun night in the Modjeska Simkins School of Human Rights for @SCProNet--talked about everyone from W.E.B. Du Bois and Matilda Evans to Ben Tillman and Cole Blease! Suffice to say it was an...interesting night! LOL.
Had another great evening of the Modjeska Simkins School of Human Rights for @SCProNet --Reconstruction is always a topic near and dear to my heart (and I plan on it being at the heart of book 3). It's also draining. I almost broke down a few times. But the work goes on.
@SCProNet thanks for the kind words! More, of course, tomorrow!
Just finished a Deeper Dive Modjeska Simkins school session for @SCProNet about the end of Reconstruction in South Carolina with @VernonBurton1 and Fergus Bordewich. Now reading MLK's *Where Do We Go From Here* for class discussion tomorrow while watching #WrestleMania.
Even if EVERY SINGLE ONE of the 32 trans athletes playing NCAA championship sports identified as women… It means that 1 in 10,000 — or .0001416 of the 226,212 women college athletes—are trans. For comparison, during SC’s championship run: Cops killed 2x more UNARMED Black…
I asked South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley if she supports transgender women (biological males) playing women's college basketball. "If you consider yourself a woman and you want to play sports or vice versa, you should be able to play."
Had a wonderful evening teaching the Modjeska Simkins School--we had the chance to show the 1980's doc about Ms. Simkins' life, *Making a Way Out of No Way,* with documentarian and journalist extraordinaire Beryl Dakers joining us! Great night. @SCProNet
I’m sick of women having to tell our abortion stories & beg for our humanity. What about men’s abortion stories 🧐 When did you benefit from not being forced into fatherhood? How did it help your career? What were you free to pursue instead of becoming a teen dad??
Update: The SC House just unanimously approved this bill to honor Black Civil War hero Robert Smalls with a monument outside the Statehouse!! They also allowed an automatic vote tomorrow to send it to the Senate. scdailygazette.com/2024/03/08/law… via @SCDailyGazette
Another great edition of the Modjeska Simkins School of Human Rights tonight! The students @SCProNet has recruited this year are some of the most inquisitive I have ever had--and makes the class all the more enjoyable for everyone.
It was an exciting #AAIHS2024 conference! I'll be tweeting a bit more about it later today but everyone there learned a great deal about reparations. And I'll also have a few things to say about the Ta-Nehisi Coates keynote, which was deeply fascinating.
Here's a question worth investigating. Is Will Folks getting paid by school choice folks to write hit pieces on SC educators that highlight local M4L "accomplishments"?
Had a wonderful first session of the Modjeska Simkins School of Human Rights tonight for @SCProNet. We have a fantastic group of students, filled with questions and energy. I could not ask for anything more.

Likely doesn't mean much, but I went out and voted in the South Carolina Democratic Primary today. I just enjoy the act of voting--and I like keeping my civic duty muscles engaged as much as possible.
