The erasure makes me livid. I see you, I hear you, you exist, you are valid, you are worthy and wonderful.
They’re pushing Black people out of public life and working to erase any knowledge that challenges the idea that Black people don’t belong there.
So apparently the AP Human Geography site is culling some of its "daily videos" for class use. A teacher tells me the videos on redlining and white flight are gone. In the screenshot below, you can see the Daily Videos start with no. 2 (no. 1 on this page was redlining, and it's gone now).

They’re forcing federal workers back to offices that are going to disappear.
Why?
Because they’re shutting the government down. Permanently. People made fun of me for saying this a month ago. But here we are.
