What is the purpose of civic education if we fail to address basic (and timely) constitutional questions in our classrooms?
When a student asked if the Constitution protects immigrants, it revealed how essential civics education is. Democracy demands we tackle these questions with courage, not silence. Our students deserve nothing less. sharemylesson.com/blog/why-civ... #EduSky #Civics

Boy, does this evoke some troubling history. Teachers, @reimagining.bsky.social has some terrific resources to put these comments in context. #Edusky 🍎
Politicians invoke #genetics to justify anti-immigration policies, but there's no scientific evidence that immigrants bring "bad genes." A geneticist examines how scientific racism is being misused in policy debates: https://buff.ly/4jeq07t (@profdasgupta.bsky.social @bostonu.bsky.social) #racism
Mass deportations don’t keep out ‘bad genes’ − they use scientific racism to justify biased immigration policies
The US has a long history of misusing genetics and biology in immigration policy, the effects of which are still keenly felt today.
