I wrote a new piece for @truthout.org looking back at 2025 — a year when educators didn’t just endure repression, they built resistance. ✊🏽📚
Education has never been neutral—It either liberates or subjugates.
Here are the stories of those who resisted subjugation.

In 2025, Educators Didn’t Just Endure Repression. They Built Resistance.
The right wants the teaching of history to no longer indict power or inspire resistance. But our side won’t submit.

Book Review: "The Coroner’s Silence" - A Chilling Inquiry into Institutional Indifference - The Arts Fuse
The title of this revelatory book might suggest that it’s limited to uncovering the deficiencies and biases of a particular profession. But "The Coroner’s Silence" is far more than that.

"The Uhura in Leigh’s piece also remains silent, dutifully pressing buttons and congenially smiling. Nichelle Nichols, who played the original Uhura, holds a significant place in Black history and is often cited as one of the first black female television characters in the US that wasn’t a maid."

Artist Simone Leigh recalled time spent as a child watching Star Trek and patiently waiting for Uhura to speak:
“I had to deal with the conundrum that she mostly repeated one line,” she remembers.

Nichelle Nichols was born on this day in 1932 in Robbins, Ill. She is best known for her role as Communications Officer Lieutenant Nyota Uhura in the original Star Trek series. Her portrayal represented one of the first times a Black woman was cast in a non-stereotypical role. /1
