Hello! I’m a former HS ethnic studies teacher who is making a documentary about the christofascist & corporatist takeover of public education. If you know some rad producers who’d like to help, please pass along! It’s called CLASS WARS and no I’m not changing the title to appease the bastards❤️

In January, white Christian nationalism will sweep into the White House and Senate (and likely retain the House).

I feel Hank on this. The Dems and the Left both have a HUGE Gatekeeping problem, and smart, passionate creators/educators with integrity don’t have a lot of time for that bs

I know I should keep my mouth shut, but I’ve watched at least a dozen smart, passionate, popular left wing content creators get torn to shreds /by the left/ until they retreat either into obscurity or apolitical content.

I’m a former history teacher who left the classroom after being targeted by fascists and for the past two years I’ve been making a documentary about the hijacking of America’s schools & uncovering Trump’s education plans. I’m looking for brave producing & fundraising partners classwars.love
