“You starve your public schools to feed your private schools and charter schools,” said one superintendent about the state’s efforts to grow charter schools. “Our foundation was set up for a free and appropriate education for all kids. All kids!” By @jsmithrichards.bsky.social

in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days movie the dad is played by steve zahn and his character reads Howard Zinn’s a people’s history of the united states at the pool

It's fitting that Mubashir was held at Ft Snelling, where Dred and Harriet Scott were enslaved, where 1658 Dakota were held in a concentration camp, and where scores of Nisei were interned to teach Japanese during WWII. Remember this when SCOTUS rules on birthright citizenship next year.
