My latest book has arrived! Available September 26th.

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

We’re hiring a Director of Teacher Education at the UW Bothell School of Ed Studies!!!!

“The Japanese American National Museum says Trump admin may withhold as much as $2 million approved by the Biden admin.” “Facing pressure to scrub its website of diversity and inclusion references, a JANM leader says the museum will ‘scrub nothing.’” www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

A few pics from the Seattle protest.

Great to connect with friends and comrades at the Ohio State University this week, but they are dealing with serious govt repression there. DEI and striking just made illegal, and there is now a post tenure review process that could be used to remove tenured faculty. Solidarity!!!!

Headed to Ohio State University to give a lecture next week. What a time to be visiting as leadership and politicians there are sharpening the attacks on DEI and professors. Looking forward to be in solidarity with the activists there.

I’ll be presenting at Ohio State University on March 27th. Come through if you are around!

Preview of the cover of my next book! Coming out on @tcpress.bsky.social this fall. It’s a collection of previously published pieces from both academic spaces and some I’ve written for @rethinkingschools.bsky.social

Musk’s cronies take scholarships from future educators in Nebraska

Our “late” fascism is an ideology of crisis and decline. It enlists supporters, as Ruth Wilson Gilmore puts it, on the basis of “explicit domination set against the local reality of decreasing family wealth, fear of unemployment, threat of homelessness, and ... capitalism’s many toxicities.”

He’s a Nazi. Drive him from public life.

I often disagree with what’s published in Jacobin, but found this to be helpful.

Official WA State guidance on supporting immigrant students in our schools.

Since we continue to remain in the Trump era, it is more important than ever to teach for justice. To help, I am sharing this important chapter by Sibbett and @profwayneau.bsky.social from back in 2018 on critical social studies knowledge and practice. Download it here: bit.ly/sibbett-au

Victory for the people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ✊🏾❤️🎉💪🏾 I first read Leonard Peltier‘s book “Prison Writings: My Life Is My Sundance” when I was 20, & ever since I have been tormented by the great injustice done to him. Grateful to the @ndncollective.bsky.social that fought for his freedom!

Another funny mash up.

lol. Too funny.

Activist Haim Bresheeth, the son of Holocaust survivors and founder of the Jewish Network for Palestine, speaks out.

I teach face validity using examples like this. 21% of people are trans? 30% of people live in NYC? Does that pass the "sniff test?" Absolutely not. Zero face validity. I worry about an individual's critical thinking ability if they can't figure this out.

If this passes tomorrow, it is going to cause so much damage.

Accurate description of my life as an education dean.

Donald Trump has vowed to deport millions and jail his enemies. To carry out that agenda, his administration will exploit America’s digital surveillance machine. Here are some steps you can take to evade it.
