If you support eliminating the Department of Education, you do not support our students. Period.

@USEDgov provides funding for:
✅Students w/ disabilities
✅Rural students
✅Programs that make college affordable

This would be bad for students, and bad for America.

Vance’s lies about Haitian immigrants abducting pets and wildlife, spreading STIs, and killing children do not just demean Haitian immigrants. These racist ideas demean Black immigrants *and* Black Americans.

Racist ideas are like a contagion. They don’t just latch onto the target. They spread and latch onto everyone associated racially with the target. Racist ideas of Haitian immigrants as dangerous reinforce racist ideas about Black Americans as dangerous. Racist ideas about Black Americans as dangerous incite the everyday police brutality of Black Americans.

Beware of any Christian movement that acts as though the world is full of enemies to be destroyed rather than full of neighbors to be loved.

The so-called “special needs” of disabled people are created by inaccessibility and ableism.

[Gregory Mansfield @GHMansfield]

Never forget that the so-called “special needs” of disabled people were created by the barriers that were created by society:
Inaccessibility.
Refusal to accommodate.
Segregation.
Institutionalization.
Inequity.
Injustice.
Ableism.

The needs of disabled people are human needs.

[Gregory Mansfield @GHMansfield]

In an ableist society, calling disabled people “special” or “special needs” is not a compliment.
It is designating disabled people as a burden.
It is a term of segregation, devaluation and dehumanization.

Child and youth #mentalhealth is closely linked to the mental health and well-being of their families. Employers can support #youthmentalhealth by offering parent-friendly benefits, and screening parents for depression and other mental health challenges. https://t.co/e5vZIOOCbI

A good read no matter where you stand. The stakes are far too high and the risks are far too great.

Discrimination on the basis of disability is not a benign or lesser form of discrimination.

Firearm violence is now the leading cause of death among children and adolescents. This is a heartbreaking milestone we should never accept as normal. https://t.co/bNS7xD9Bhp

Racism and microaggression.

The need for DEI training right before your very eyes.

MTG attacks @JasmineForUS appearance.

Representative Crockett defends herself, and that is the problem.

She is told to “calm down.” “You’re out of control” and “I can't hear you with your yelling.”

The trope is that Black women are loud and aggressive. Rep. Crockett was defending herself after being body-shamed. They ignored MTGs comments until Jasmine spoke out.

Jasmine Crockett is “that bitch” and MTG will find out soon enough. “Bleach Blond Bad Built Butch Body.” #DemsUnited

Is it going to be public knowledge which teachers are carrying their guns to school?

I can't be the only parent who would want my kid out of that class immediately

So it begins! So excited! @SCSchools @bigpiclearning

[Gregory Mansfield @GHMansfield]

When you call a person “special” solely because of their disability, you are not complimenting them.
You are isolating, segregating and devaluing them with the burden of ableism.
