In honor of #geoweek here is an ode to my personal geographic hero, Carmen Sandiego <a href="http://bzfd.it/1xPjskd" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link="bsky">http://bzfd.it/1xPjskd #osmgeoweek
10 Times Carmen Sandiego Was The Coolest
Let’s take a moment to reminisce about our favorite criminal mastermind of computer game and television fame. In the eighties and early nineties, we chased Carmen around the globe, inadvertently learning world geography and culture along the way. Recruited personally by ACME, we also got our first taste of playing detective. Maybe we should add gumshoe to our resume? <b>Here’s to you, Carmen, for being a teacher, a style icon, and being so darn hard to find.</b> **Celebrate geography and it's leaders every third week of November!
