Mi hija me llamó desde la escuela ayer.

Ella:
—Papá, me metí en problemas.

Yo:
—¿Qué pasó?

Ella:
—Un chico me agarró del brazo cuando intenté alejarme de él. Así que le di en la nariz.

Yo: (pausa)
—¿Estás bien?

Ella:
—Estoy bien. Pero el director quiere hablar contigo.

Fui.

El director se sentó frente a mí y explicó que, aunque entendía que mi hija se había sentido incómoda, su reacción había sido inapropiada.

Según él, el chico no la había lastimado realmente.

Debería haberlo escuchado.

Yo:
—¿Y qué dijo mi hija cuando le explicaste eso?

Director: (incómodo)
—Me dijo que si esa era mi actitud, quizá debería dedicarme a otra profesión.

Que estaba enseñando a las niñas a callarse.

Y a los niños que agarrar a alguien estaba bien.

Que hombres con esta actitud eran exactamente la razón por la que su madre le había enseñado a defenderse.

Yo permanecí unos segundos en silencio.

Miré al director.

—Con todo respeto.

—El chico la agarró cuando ella intentó alejarse.

Me levanté.

—Creo que hemos terminado aquí.

Recogí a mi hija.

Caminamos hacia el coche.

Durante unos segundos ninguno de los dos dijo nada.

Entonces me preguntó:

—¿Estoy en problemas?

La miré.

—Tu madre te enseñó bien.

Y sinceramente...

nunca he estado más orgulloso de ella.

Yesterday I scolded the Mammoth for not hosting a Pride night. Reading the toxic responses is a great reminder why Pride nights are needed.

Most replies assumed I was gay, which my wife of 27 years might disagree with. I’m just a guy who supports equality.

Please support this.

Just a reminder that you are doing your best, and that’s more than enough. It’s okay to take it one day at a time.

What ICE is doing to our children is unconscionable.

[Audrey Renée Bentley @BentleyAudrey]

All you have to do is read the comments on this post and it becomes clear why legislation like this is so important. Many men think that since she made a sex tape with her partner in the past, it invalidates her words on this topic.

Take a moment to look at the inhumanity captured in this extraordinary photo running on the front page of tonight's Minneapolis @StarTribune. It shows federal immigration agents immobilizing a protester on the ground and spraying chemical irritant directly into his face. The scene reminds me of the brutality used against civil rights protesters in the 1960s. We look back at those old photos and wonder how the authorities could have behaved so savagely; many years from now, young Americans will look at these photos from 2026 and wonder how anyone could have justified shooting a woman in the head as she tried to drive away, arresting 5-year-old schoolchildren on the street, or holding a man down and spaying chemicals into his face. Thanks to the Star Tribune reporters and photographers for documenting this work; they create accountability, they make democracy work, and they make all of us in journalism proud.
