Morgantown area schools are requiring teachers to take down Pride flags in their classrooms as they've been deemed political activism and a violation of district policy. https://t.co/oK12XoiC7d

[NASW - West Virginia @naswwv]

West Virginia ranks 49th in # of students who remain in the state after graduation. Reckless and dangerous legislation like HB302 will only drive more West Virginians out of state. We cannot build a sustainable workforce if our state does not protect basic human rights.

Here lies the first & the last needs-based/evidence-based Harm Reduction program in WV.

As of next week we are forced to implement rules that at best keep people from accessing care and at worst literally kill people.

RIP Aug.2015-Jan2021

LIFE UPDATE: I’m thrilled to announce that at the start of 2022, I will be joining @ObamaFoundation and the @MBK_Alliance team!

I am so excited to get back to my roots in working with communities that empower young people of color to dive into their passions!

“Many who lived in Linnentown are urging leaders in Athens to pay for destroying their community more than 50 years ago to make way for the University of Georgia.”

@juergenthebread I would buy any/every book you publish, but if you made a German recipe book, I’d buy multiple copies as gifts for my family. I need a Brötchen recipe that will actually work at home. I would also love to see a German Christmas recipe book. ❤️

OPINION | "Reflecting upon the ordeal further, truthfully, the University of Austin is a fine analogy for Gee’s tenure at West Virginia thus far: supposedly premier and forward-looking, but in reality, lacking meaningful substance and results."

I managed to miss most of the horrible Paternity Leave Discourse because, well, I'm on paternity leave until January.

But: Parental leave should be universal, and it should be universally taken. And not just so men can be helpmates to their wives, who're doing the Real Work.

@jwcraig @BritishBakeOff I saw this on Facebook and it answers your question perfectly.

Once again another viral video has shown the world how police harm Black people on a daily basis. On Saturday, Ocean City officers tased, hogtied & hurt a young Black teenager over a trivial allegation of vaping on the boardwalk

Today, we honor the 49 people who were killed in the Pulse nightclub attack five years ago. The tragedy at Pulse is a reminder that every day we must fight together to protect LGBTQ people and other marginalized communities against hate and violence.

[THEE TekKwene @tekkwene]

@IAmAmnaNawaz They’re confusing CRT (which is taught in some college graduate programs), with teaching an accurate version of American history that includes ugly truths about our country. If you think teaching students about the Tulsa Race Massacre is CRT, you got it wrong. Theory ≠ History

BREAKING: We are suing the state of West Virginia over its ban on trans students in school sports.

Thank you to WVU for silencing students who wanted to speak anonymously about their mental health experience. Cease and Desist... real classy

[Em @ECoWV]

Thank God I live in West Virginia then, @CNN. 🙄

[Justin “Hoops” McElroy @JustinMcElroy]

This is the kind of ignorance and flat out cruelty we’re fighting in a state that has the largest percentage of trans kids in the nation. How do you push back on your representatives when you can’t even agree on the basic tenet that you should give a shit about other people?
