Young people hear this all the time: education is how you build a future.
But if they come from a family that can’t write big tuition checks, they may get crushed by debt.
And their path may get even rockier now that the GOP wants to slash Pell Grants and student loans.

This isn't about "woke" government or DEI - it is removing civil right era protections against discrimination.
BREAKING: In a new executive order sent out by the White House, Donald Trump has revoked the federal contractor nondiscrimination executive order, EO 11246, that was signed by Lyndon Johnson in 1965 and has protected employees of businesses seeking federal contracts from discrimination ever since.

It should prob be remembered that “birthright citizenship” was the product of the abolitionist mvt, which understood that no person of color would be safe from deportation or bondage if their citizenship could be questioned or taken away

With Trump freezing science in the name of efficiency and combating wokeness (www.science.org/content/arti...), this line from my book is rattling around my head - a line I wrote back in the proposal. Many of our fellow citizens think progress rolls on despite rather than because of "experts."

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

I'm still generally not reading the NYT any longer (and I did cancel my subscription) but sometimes they still publish something worth reading. I talked with a journalist last week about the budding U.S. version of the 4B movement/heteropessimism emerging online after Trumpet's election.

I honestly don’t think Americans understand how much their day to day lives depend on federal civil servants and now is the time for professional commentators to write op-eds explaining
