My latest post is about demonstrating your worth in a #personalstatement! It’s not enough to show what you’ve done. You have to show what contribution you’ll be making in the #future.

Should you write about #Covid_19 in your #personalstatement?

Published a new post on demonstrating learning from mistakes rather than perfection! #personaldevelopment #WednesdayMotivation

The quiet around childcare moving forward is deafening. There is no money to be made from it and the government knows women will continue to provide it invisibly and uncompensated, because there is no other choice.

Tip for students going off to college: study 80s/90s pop culture. Particularly Ferris Beuller, Princess Bride, Simpsons seasons 2-5. Your gen x/early millennial profs will try to connect with you through these, and will be confused/sad when you stare blankly at them. Not joking.

As an Australian I find it odd that Ocasio-Cortez, Omar, Pressley and Tlaib are seen as the “far left” when they’re just fighting for things that, well, pretty much every other developed country has had for years.

Just my two cents.

Rep. Cummings: Listening to Pres. Trump "I could not help but think about when I was 11 years old, trying to integrate ... We were taunted. Stones were thrown at us. Bottles. They said the same words. They said, 'go back to your neighborhood. Go back to where you came from.'"

My name is Lutz Grünthal. In 1939, the US sent me back. I was murdered in Auschwitz.

[Anna Beskin @AnnaBeskin]

So proud for my friend and amazing writer @CarolineHagood!

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Reminder of what people are calling the “radical, extreme-left agenda”:

✅ Medicare for All
✅ A Living Wage & Labor Rights
✅ K-16 schooling, aka Public Colleges
✅ 100% Renewable Energy
✅ Fixing the pipes in Flint
✅ Not Hurting Immigrants
✅ Holding Wall Street Accountable

I do not understand the mindset of people that think wanting to make America a more equal and just place means you hate it.

In my mind the real people that hate America are the ones that have benefited their entire life from inequality, see it, & yet choose to do nothing.
