Truth.

[JFK Library Foundation @JFKLibraryFdn]

To embarrass Northern liberals and humiliate Black people, southern White Citizens Councils started their so-called "Reverse Freedom Rides," giving Black people one-way tickets to northern cities with false promises of jobs, housing, and better lives.

What's going on right now on Martha's Vineyard, where migrants from TX were unceremoniously dropped off with no resources, has happened before.

In 1962, Southern segregationists sent 200 Southern Blacks to the North with the promise of jobs. Some landed in Hyannis, MA.

I use to be on the team that's like, "Let kids bring phones into the classroom! We'll use them for learning!"

The problem, and the reason I've changed my stance, is simply that the attention economy makes this nearly impossible.

It's a losing battle for kids & their brain.

We have always had SEL in schools. It was called recess, unstructured play, and classes like Music, Art, Physical Education, etc. but they have been systemically taken away or reduced because some have decided testing is more important than learning.

EVERY athlete deserves a coach that encourages, supports and loves them. EVERY athlete deserves a coach that respects them and wants them to grow into amazing human beings not just a win medals. Athletes, if you have that, you have won the lottery. Never let it go.
