Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

"Teachers wouldn't report students to ICE."

Have you met white teachers in Texas?? Or the south?? Yes they would. 100% these racist people would. They are not like Mrs. Frazzled or Mr. Williams. They are horrible and terrible people.

I’ll never get over that all of this was avoidable and our kids could’ve had a better future had voters just made the obviously rational choice in November. It’s water under the bridge now. But what the fuck, people.

Had a great meeting with a local nonprofit that is doing incredible and necessary work. Excited for upcoming opportunities to partner!

I've taught Banned Books for the last two semesters of co-op. Trying to change things up a little and looking at doing a book club instead and opening it up for the parents. Open to suggestions for boost to read

Another one that engages reluctant readers & writers. Prompt ideas:
-Describe yourself in 3 characters
-What if these characters met? What would they be saying, doing etc?
-I've also used characters from different stories we've read together to push inferencing & critical thinking.
