A party in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn, invited "Shrek" fans to translate their online obsessions with the ogre into reality. The Shrek Rave kicked off with Smash Mouth's "All Star" ringing through the speakers. https://t.co/7QFvZe3F4u
@cultofpedagogy For me it's the lack of resources from up-high. School psych is only in 3 days of week and she's dedicated to students with IEPs. We need mental health support! Meanwhile district pushes new curriculum and focuses on "catching up" academically instead of SEL and healing.
NEW: In response to exploitation by Uber & Lyft, drivers in NYC are forming a worker-owned rideshare cooperative called @TheDriversCoop.
The new app offers cheaper rides and returns all profits to the drivers.
It could defeat Uber & Lyft with New Yorkersโ support.
In much of SF, you canโt walk 20 feet without seeing a sign declaring that Black lives matter and no human being is illegal. Those signs sit in yards zoned for single families, in communities that organize against the new housing that would bring those values closer to reality.
