#SchoolChoice season is here in Denver metro and our schools keep getting more and more segregated. @integratedschools.bsky.social has taught me a lot about approaching school choice with antiracism in mind. Come join in and learn at one of the forums next week.

This cause is close to my heart - please sign: publicschoolstrong.controlshift.app/petitions/ke...

Denver Folx- I’ve been deeply invested in the DPS school board race. It makes me sad to hear of smear campaigns and dark money. It’s important to notice who is donating to certain candidates and the hidden agenda that may come from that.

Celebrated Labor Day by protesting kings and being grateful for my union. #WorkersOverBillionaires

I'm attending May Day Strong's event, “Denver #WorkersOverBillionaires Labor Day” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve...

Denver folx: come meet Amy Klein Molk. She’s running for Denver school board At Large- that means any voter who lives in Denver can vote for her in November. I support her candidacy and truly believe she has the best interests of students and educators in mind! RSVP here: pp.events/bYxxqLj3

Billionaire ‘dark money’ is behind the Denver school board endorsements coloradonewsline.com/2023/10/21/b...

DENVER FOLX: You are invited to an event I’m hosting for our Denver educators endorsed DPS school board candidate, Amy Klein Molk. Amy is a great human. Strong supporter of neighborhood schools and educators! Here’s the link for the invite to rsvp: pp.events/bYxxqLj3

#StauntonStatePark incorporating mobility aids to help all people enjoy the beauty of Colorado! Love to see it! Inclusion should be universal.

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs. A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which is about to get cut. If Bezos can spend $50M on a wedding, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

www.chalkbeat.org/colorado/202... I had the pleasure of meeting Amy. She’s a true gem, highly capable with a heart of gold for our most impacted kiddos!!

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!" Social Security - "That's socialism!" Debt free education - "That's socialism!" Universal childcare - "That's socialism!" $1 trillion+ in tax cuts for the wealthy... "That's just how it is."

A member of the facilities team at the middle school I work at was tragically killed in a hit and run last week. He was 27. His brother is a colleague of mine and this has obviously devastated their family. Please consider supporting them during this time. gofund.me/20ab2ab5

SAVE THE DATE: National Gun Violence Awareness Day and Wear Orange Weekend are less than a month away! On Friday, June 6, help spread awareness about our nation’s gun violence crisis by wearing orange and sharing your pic and message of support on social media with the #WearOrange hashtag.

Today I heard stories of my public school Colleagues who can’t afford to own a home or even rent in the city they teach in and going through medical debt to afford healthcare. Its All so much. We NEED to do better. We NEED TO prioritize differently. They deserve better.

Happy National #BikeToSchoolDay to all who celebrate. #BikeBus A little rain didn’t stop us this morning in #Denver

I asked for a few hours off tonight from my husband after a heavy week at work and lots of parenting. My husband took my kids to a movie and I ordered Thai food, finished a book, and took a bath. These are the things that help me be a better mom & OT. #SelfCare What would YOU do with your two hours?

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

It was a beautiful morning to bike to school with my friends on a #BikeBus.

My whole job is around including kids with disabilities and working to improve equity with students in an urban area. This is so extreme and he needs to be stopped! apnews.com/article/dei-...

Yes kids, we are going to another protest today. #HandsOff #Denver This is the energy I need in my life, surrounded by 1000s of like-minded folks who truly give AF. This is what democracy looks like! ✊🏽

I stand with the penguins of Heard and McDonald Islands!

Same same.

We tried mass tariffs in 1828, and it crashed the economy. We tried again in 1930, and it crashed the economy. Third time’s the charm, I guess.

The penguins react to tariffs

Denver had some amazing organized rallies and events this week fighting for labor workers, immigration, education funding and fighting against the oligarchy. Big names & big crowds came out in droves. It filled my cup so much to be with so many like minded people fighting for what is right. #Denver

Fighting against over 1billion $ cuts in Colorado education when we already rank at the bottom in the nation for per pupil education funding. This is unacceptable. #noMorecuts @neatoday.bsky.social

Wishing that our current administration could learn a thing or two from Kid President. youtu.be/m5yCOSHeYn4?...

🚨 TEXAS: We MUST pack the Capitol in Austin on Tuesday!! I won’t sugarcoat it, it’s not looking good, but we still have a chance to pump the brakes on the worst of Abbott’s voucher scheme, but it all depends on us showing up. I lay it all out, with brutal honesty, on Substack

Nothing says “This is normal” like Rep. Lance Gooden (R-TX) crossing the aisle at the State of the Union to rip a “This is not normal” sign out of the hands of Rep Melanie Stansbury (D-NM). So much for supporting free speech. Video @therecount.com

Republican leadership denied her request for a proxy vote, so she showed up to vote with her newborn. Rep. Brittany Pettersen is every mom who fights tooth and nail to build a better world for their kids. She deserves ALL the flowers! app.sosha.ai/s/qNg0zXrx

Another successful #Colorado @momsdemand.bsky.social Advocacy Day! Things are hard right now w/ the chaos and awfulness of the MAGA administration, & still these volunteers continue to show up in a demonstration of optimism and hope. We will continue our work to make our communities safer. #ExpectUs

#Denver folks- come support federal workers this Wednesday as they head back to the office and share some love with them thru a sign or a clap! @allencowgill.bsky.social is helping to organize.

The Department of Education impacts students' lives every single day. Eliminating it would cause chaos, especially for students with disabilities. Trump’s plans can be summed up by one word: cruel. www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...

Two years after the MSU mass shooting, a new art exhibit explores healing from gun violence michiganadvance.com/2025/02/08/t...

Feeling defeated this week, but this gave me joy today. Kids give me so much hope for a brighter future.

Happy #NationalWomensInSportsDay for all who celebrate. Grateful for more opportunities for women to play sports and to watch women play sports. We still have some work to do, but teaching #8 that the sky is the limit! #GirlPower

A great day to ride #transit. In honor of #RosaParksDay. We could all use her tenacity and courage right now in this country! Let’s keep standing up to the gross inequities and racism in our country and continue to honor the legacy of #RosaParks

Celebrating Black History Month....

Dear Canada and Mexico, We’re so, so sorry. — Sane America

I'm starting to wonder if the US now has a dictator.

I’ve been hearing impaired in my right ear since I was 5 years old after the removal of a tumor. I’m 41 years old, and just got my first hearing aid. I’ve only had it for an hour, and some of the new sounds I have already noticed include the clicking of a seatbelt and the sound of a garbage truck.
