“It’s so important to teach children to be supportive of each other, true to each other and to themselves,” Rinderle said. “The lives, experiences and self-identities of students should be validated and celebrated.” https://t.co/lCeaQuLq9n

The long-term consequences of such systematic attacks on public education, for our children and our democracy, are dangerous and unacceptable.

I agree. Inaccurate and inflammatory criticism of public educators is “pathetic” and reprehensible. They deserve to be praised, not demonized.

For the second straight day, the Michigan Senate GOP ended session early in a cowardly attempt to silence Democrats from speaking on the Senate floor about the slaughter of children in Texas. But we won't be silenced. Here's the speech Republicans were too afraid to hear.

“…the very notion that learning about slavery or redlining or systemic racism means that children are being taught to feel bad or hate themselves because they are white is absolute nonsense.”

Senator Lana Theis accused me by name of grooming and sexualizing children in an attempt to marginalize me for standing up against her marginalizing the LGBTQ community...in a fundraising email, for herself.

Hate wins when people like me stand by and let it happen. I won't.

My parents understood that teaching children about terrible things isn’t easy, but it is necessary https://t.co/oRgYmCftMZ

The fight for democracy is not defined by one victory, one defeat, one election or one bill.

It is rooted in the sustained, informed engagement of citizens committed to lifting every voice, protecting every vote and holding our elected leaders accountable.
