@richardmontbury@r0ck3t23 Check out @AlphaSchoolATX. As a former public school teacher & principal and parent I would be in favor of replacing the current public education model to this.
Today, Father’s Day, my kids were betting on what dad is doing. Here’s what they guessed: making a tea, having a toast, listening to a “Berry Wise” podcast! ;-)@AriAkerstein@bariweiss
This morning my 8 year old daughter was sharing how she wants to be a scientist when she grows up. I told her about @NeriOxman and the work she does at her material sciences lab @MIT. My daughter’s eyes lit up and she asked, “Does she offer lessons?” 😍
🕯️Never again.
In memory of the 6 million men, women and children who were murdered just for being #Jewish, along with millions more who lost their lives at the hands of the #Nazis.

I have two Rabbis. One of them is almost exactly the same age as me, so we're friends.
He reminded me once that, in our attempt to create a utopia, we could end up creating a dyspotia. This is exactly what's happening across the West.
We wanted to create a world where everyone is equal. Where everyone is heard. Where everyone is trusted and treated as innocent until proven guilty. Where there's freedom of the press and freedom of expression.
So, we ended up giving a voice to those who want to murder us. We ended up granting them the freedom to call for our destruction, from the heart of our capitals. We ended up granting platforms controlled by our enemies, such as Russia Today and Al Jazeera, the freedom to promote a narrative and convince our children that we are the villains. We granted our enemies the right to plant the seeds of ignorance, hatred, divison, and confusion right in our backyard.
Today, millions take to our streets to support extremists, terrorists, Jew haters, and a bunch of Islamist maniacs who call themselves the Houthis. Our utopia can still be saved. It doesn't have to end up a dystopia. WE WILL FIGHT BACK.
This is why I, as an Arab, support Israel and will continue to support Israel.
We have persecuted and oppressed Jews in every single Arab country and they all ran away from us as refugees.
It says more about us Arabs than anything else.
for a long time i said that antisemitism, particularly on the american left, was not as bad as people claimed.
i'd like to just state that i was totally wrong.
i still don't understand it, really. or know what to do about it.
but it is so fucked.
