Hey teachers: Speaking truth to power in your classroom, especially in places that want silence and compliance, is activism. Telling the truth in a room full of students is THE WORK. Refusing to back down and refusing to lie in your curricular decisions is protest. +

New lesson by @jessehagopian.bsky.social Using a gallery walk, students are invited to explore competing explanations for U.S. intervention in Venezuela and then develop their own hypothesis. All our lessons are free. Send feedback & stories if you use it. www.zinnedproject.org/materials/wh...

He really did it in 2 weeks while @tinakotek.bsky.social tries to take Preschool For All away.

New York City elected a socialist mayor & their moderate Dem governor is forced to move to the left to embrace universal childcare. Portland elected a CEO mayor & our moderate Dem governor is trying to kill universal preschool on behalf of the rich.

ICE can’t handle ice.

This is Nazi shit, no one is coming to save us. Find your people and organize.

Portland Mayor Keith Wilson needs to issue an arrest warrant for the ICE agents who attempted murder today. ICE has declared war on our cities. This is a hostile takeover. We must not comply.

Portland says, Fuck ICE!

The media (and everyone else) need to stop referring to ICE as "law enforcement". They are out to perform "ethnic cleansing" and to terrorize the population. There is nothing "lawful" about it.

You can tell it’s campaign season again

They went to a high school in Minnesota during dismissal and took kids and teachers.

•go to work •teach the youth •watch the government murder •watch the government lie •go home •try to sleep •wake up •go to work •teach the youth

Abolish ICE and Nuremberg-style trials for those complicit.

ICE must be abolished. The work of our time is to tear down the system that built it and remake it into one that embraces and designs systems that include all people from all places. This work will be done, because the alternative is unbearable.

It seems it is once again time for everyone to familiarize themselves with this anti-imperialist classic.

PBS News Hour Classroom Educator Voice: Teachers, if we don’t teach Maduro’s capture in Venezuela, TikTok will. Here’s my plan. "If you teach any subject touching on power and law, this is your curriculum. Not next week. Tomorrow." by David Cutler, teacher #sschat #EduSky https://loom.ly/hUkl28E

Ppl sometimes tell me to not comment on federal or international news on my personal accounts bc I’m a local elected and I’m like…IM LITERALLY SOITH AMERICAN and I’m HERE bc the U.S. helped install a dictator in Paraguay and ruined our country! And $ spent on bombs is $ not spent on bridges!!

About to spend a trillion dollars on our military but our country has a literacy crisis!

Yale Law School, you will pay for your crimes

As a world history teacher in the middle of our imperialism unit, I’m now spending my weekend changing my plans for the next 3 weeks based on US actions in Venezuela 🫠🫩

“We can do whatever we want to you” is axiomatic for the administration, much of congress, state and local officials, and a big chunk of the electorate and is encoded in the country’s business practices and social relations

Just really fucking angry at how unnecessary this all is and the pathetic cowards who let it happen. Do your constitutionally mandated job and put him in jail before he does it to you first.

Not sure how I’m surprised, but I am. Solidarity with the people of Venezuela.

Solidarity with the people of Venezuela No war! 🇻🇪

All my fucking tax dollars go towards murdering innocent people abroad. Never enough money for free college. Or free school lunch. Or to fix the goddamned roads and the crumbling bridges. Always enough for murder. I am so livid.

we have not "apprehended" the president of venezuela. we have invaded a foreign country and kidnapped its leader. what the fuck are we doing here, i am going to lose my mind

Among the many reasons you don’t kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

day one in mamdani’s new york

I just watched Heated Rivalry so this is about to be my entire personality for the next 3 weeks.

How many Americans die each year from cancer because they’re waiting for an appointment to see a doctor? Was thinking about that today after I called and tried to schedule an appointment for something and the were like “the next available appointment is May 18th.”

that's a big if. how about any hypothetical surplus goes to childcare for all instead of back into the pockets of the rich?

We really need to bring back a focus on reading comprehension

the taxes that are actually making life in the portland area affordable are somehow needing to be paused. because of, you know, affordability

I know people have feelings but I’m really excited for a new adaptation of The Odyssey.

The CBS 60 Minutes Doc confirms what we knew: The U.S. is currently using our tax dollars to imprison brown people with no criminal record in torture camps overseas. It’s no wonder administration shill Bari Weiss pulled this off the air: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjY7...

The Olivia Nuzzi story and the Bari Weiss at CBS story are the same story, which is that the upper echelons of legacy media are absolutely rife with people who worship power and don't feel burdened by any sense of responsibility to their profession or the public.

There are many reasons kids aren’t reading, including, but not limited to: 1) bad curriculum decided upon by school districts without teacher input 2) standardized tests 3) screens 4) parents not reading with their kids at home 5) poverty

AHEM everyone, we have a good idea here:
