Great conversation on Ethnic Studies and what the confusing attacks on social justice education are really about. Students want to learn how the world works and how it has been changed in the past. They have a right to access this knowledge in public schools.

Powwow as resistance; a timely idea.
The course was designed with input from dozens of native nations and has received the backing of major educational institutes and civil rights groups. READ MORE: trib.al/yc1rEen
UT Austin do better.
⭐️⭐️It’s official! Following a historic vote this morning Texas AAUP is now an affiliate of @TexasAFT! We will now be known as Texas AAUP-AFT. Looking forward to all we will accomplish together in the years ahead!👏👏 aaup-utaustin.org/2024/03/20/his…
Texas students should learn complete history, not just that of certain groups. The SBOE has stopped the review for an American Indians/Native Studies course that would expose students to a critical part of our history. Sign the Petition #TexasforAINS: actionnetwork.org/petitions/ains…
🙏🏻🙏🏻
The NAACP Lubbock Branch has submitted a letter to the chair of the Texas State Board of Education, requesting the inclusion of the AINS Course on the upcoming meeting agenda. Please consider signing this petition!

✴️Responding to overwhelming concern among UT faculty about increasingly untenable teaching and learning conditions, UT Austin AAUP has begun circulating an open letter intended to gauge support for a vote of no confidence in UT President Jay Hartzell. 1/x
Now more than 4️⃣5️⃣0️⃣! Are you a faculty member who has lost confidence in President Hartzell? Do you oppose mass firings of staff and support peaceful resolution of conflict? Please sign today‼️ kut.org/education/2024…
It's been quite the week here at @UTAustin — but I'm very proud of our coverage at @thedailytexan and everyone who's helped with it. Read more about Wednesday's pro-Palestine protest and the events that have followed, and keep an eye out for updates at thedailytexan.com.
On my hardest days in academia, I’m reminded of the power of representation & the impact of my presence. For many Black girls, I am the 1st Black woman professor they’ve ever had, so when they see me, they don’t just see what I’ve done but what THEY can do. They are my “why”(3/3)
The count is now more than 3️⃣0️⃣0️⃣. Stay tune on Monday for the release of the letter.
More than 200 faculty say they’ve lost confidence in UT Austin President Jay Hartzell. l8r.it/Z1Xl
@meganmmenchaca @UTAustin Sitting and chanting on the south lawn would have been disruptive to the university’s function but using policemen riot gear to force the protest to congest Speedway was not?
@jodywayzata Abbott certainly exerted pressure. But there’s no evidence that Jay Hartzell pushed back on behalf of the students, staff, and faculty under his leadership. His two letters defending the action make this clear.
Congratulations! We are so grateful for your work!! 👏👏
