This is what police have been doing to black Americans since forever. Enough of the "this isn't who we are." You're now noticing because it's white people.

Y'know... I wonder if we'd be seeing so many instructors jumping to use AI in the classroom if we actually trained people how to teach. At all.

I was reading the comments on a local news article about Medicaid cuts and a Missouri woman called having access to healthcare a “lifestyle” that isn’t meant for folks who can’t afford it. I have never read anything more sad, or American, in my life…

A timely quote from Dr. Carla Hayden: “Libraries are a cornerstone of democracy—where information is free and equally available to everyone. People tend to take that for granted, and they don’t realize what is at stake when that is put at risk.”

Something surprising is happening: After a steep drop-off during the pandemic, youth drug use is *continuing* its remarkable decline—defying the predictions of many experts. We spoke with researcher Richard Miech to get his take on the phenomenon. 🧵1/9

She wrote an article in the student newspaper. That’s all she did. The U.S. can’t call itself a free country if that gets you sent to jail.

Apparently we're going to surveillance our way to learning. Anyone who doubts that AI is inextricably bound up with intensive monitoring of student behaviors need only look at how those who genuinely believe this technology is a help are positioning it.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

I'm gonna live to outlive this malignancy, and even if they live in its shadow my kids have their whole lives ahead of them with the next four years in the rear view. It's not choosing escapism or ignorance to focus on building a bridge to *that* world starting today.

A revelation that hit me during my conversation w/
@pernille.bsky.social
is the tension & pressure of training American teachers to be superheroes needed to rescue kids from failing economic systems while ignoring those systemic failures. The demand to be superhuman is ultimately dehumanizing.
