Use your powers for good, not evil. It isn’t hard. Do what’s right.
Couldn’t decide. Made two.

My point was that the right’s imaginary need to attack educators for explicitly indoctrinating children (about anything) was a ridiculous, manufactured problem created to fit their narrative. We are in classrooms busy teaching children all subjects, including inclusivity of all people. Full stop.

We already have comprehension questions that kindergarteners have to answer at the end of a reading passage. Learning to read, then reading to learn, and more! It’s a lot!

I’m on your side. My comment was meant sarcastically.
I, too, am horrified by the need for active shooter drills and the attack on DEI.

I fully get the tongue-in-cheek original post. Sorry if my sarcasm didn’t come through.
The attack on DEI is nauseating and sad for our country.

Can I just weigh in as an elementary educator for nearly 40 years? Not once have I had the opportunity or need to read a book about two mommies or two daddies to my class. I’ve been too busy teaching your children to read, write and do math. You’re welcome.

I gave some of my kindergartners new seating assignments and accommodations to maximize their learning. Equity and inclusion.
Report me.

Already do.

Because if you say they don’t exist, they magically don’t exist?
Hmmmm.
I’m not sure that’s how it works.

I just texted my adult daughters and told them I maybe knew who 50% of the people were who were being interviewed. I think that may be generous. 🙄 But I’m no quitter!

No surprises. No change in his message or goals. No way out.
So here is a calming picture of my cat. It’s all I’ve got. (And thanks, Molly. We need you!)
