Happy to retire in ‘24 after 25yrs of teaching in PreK-8 NYC public school. I don’t miss the administration part but I do miss the many scholars I was able to meet, teach & hopefully inspire. I’m also a cat dad, twin & uncle.

We could’ve been watching the 🤡 defend himself in court & voters could’ve sent a strong FU to the politics of malevolence, incompetence & cruelty. Instead we have to see & hear the 🤡, as a president, again. Meanwhile his sycophants implement the White Christain Nationalist wet dream, Project 2025.

Looking forward to reading this new research. We need scholarship that continues to expose the disastrous effects of the Roberts’ Court’s assault on the Voting Rights Act.

Thanks @kevintmorris.bsky.social and @michaelgmiller.bsky.social.

"The Attorney General of the United States has set a new low for this committee," Whitehouse said.

Shouldn't doing what Pam Bondi is accusing James Comey of doing be a scandal that would make her have to resign? In her case it's is easily proven that she lied to the committee.

Congressional redistricting is monumentally important. But for Black people in places like Fayette County, TN, it is the County Commn where the stakes are highest.

What SCOTUS does in Louisiana v Calláis may threaten Black representation across the rural South.

The Supreme Court may further erode the Voting Rights Act in an upcoming decision. Beyond affecting Congress, that would reverberate across local governments nationwide.

A mother and her 15 year old autistic son are reunited after nearly 50 days apart.

Emmanuel Garcia went missing, and rather than check missing person’s reports, Houston PD called ICE.

ICE sent him to the Office of Refugee Resettlement and his mom has been fighting to get him back ever since.

Remember Andrew Wakefield?
Here he is with his friend RFK Jr. in 2020.

Wakefield is the guy behind the fraudulent, retracted MMR–autism study. He lost his medical license for subjecting autistic children to unnecessary invasive procedures.

Now, with Kennedy in power, he’s getting a second act.

This is my kind of good trouble.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

It is so blatant now.

Yet they still don’t get it.

That even their own racism was created for them by the wealthy to keep them poor.

Will they ever get it?

An important part of the job for any WH Press Secretary is to clean up remarks made by the president or offer explanation/context or apology when warranted. But Leavitt never does that. She always crafts a response that makes it even worse by adding her own toxic twist.

Former Finnish PM Sanna Marin put it bluntly: “To end the conflict, Russia must leave Ukrainian territory.”
