Hey all. I’ve been quiet for a long time. Find me on LinkedIn for any professional needs, personal check IG - it’s a similar name. I might hit up BS. And honestly you can dm me for contact info.
I’m sad to leave but it’s downward after tomorrow’s update in ToS. It will be soon.

Teachers have left the profession at record rates. America is currently short 320,000+ teachers….and it’s only getting worse.

NOW WHAT?

Happy Public Schools Week!

As a former teacher, I know that public schools are not just where our kids go to learn - they’re the center of our communities.

That’s why I was proud to make the largest investment in public schools in state history.

“I didn’t even learn the basics of classroom management in my teacher prep program. I couldn’t begin to meet the needs of my students or advocate for myself coming out of my teacher prep course. We had way more emphasis on social emotional learning and ideology than we did on student academic achievement or classroom management.” — Virginia Public School Special Education Teacher

There is no such fucking thing as being “too woman” to pilot a helicopter, “too gay” to land a plane or “too black” to be an air traffic controller.

There is however, such a thing as being too hateful, too stupid & too sociopathic to be president.

And we call that Donald Trump.

Black history is American history.

Our music, art, sports, literature, leadership, resistance, and resilience are fundamental to the fabric of our nation and the progress that we fight for.

This month and every month, we celebrate Black history, and we continue our fight for justice and equality for every American.

Wow. This is how news becomes propaganda. It’s begun. Pay attention.

BREAKING: David Hogg, a survivor of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting just been elected Vice Chair of the DNC.

CONGRATS!

[Alex Cole @acnewsitics]

Okay, this is funny.

[Brian Tyler Cohen @briantylercohen]

To be clear, you're calling for a New Jersey-born bishop to be deported because you don't like that she exercised her First Amendment right by delivering a sermon in accordance with her faith imploring Trump to show empathy to people?

Throughout his life as a civil rights leader, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was committed to ensuring equal opportunity, especially in education.

Today, we celebrate his life and the countless lives his work has impacted over generations.

As I said today, let’s remember where the power in that Capitol rotunda comes from: the people. The construction workers, teachers, health care workers, and the firefighters in LA. Our democracy must match their grit and determination.

[Jimmy Carter Presidential Library @CarterLibrary]

Today we remember Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Someone President Carter deeply admired. On 1/14/79 President and Mrs. Carter took part in a service at Ebenezer Baptist Church with Daddy King, Coretta Scott King, Andy Young, and others. NAID 18300 #Heroes #CivilRights #Leaders

Today, we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day, a time to honor the life and legacy of the civil rights leader who championed justice, equality, and love. His timeless words remain deeply relevant in our world today.

[Sesame Street @sesamestreet]

On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we pause to remember the great leader who dedicated his life to fighting injustice. May we never forget him and the timeless contributions he left to the world—of courage, equity, and above all, love.
