@LahavHarkov@luxemiaa I literally just taught this poem to my HS creative writers this week. They were appalled at his audacity. I love this generation.
@JessieMaacc@porterpri42@lastleprechaun @nancytaughtyou HS English teacher here. @jessiemaac I preach this very thing in my classes and we DO do most of our writing, including journals and essays, by hand. That brain, hand, paper connection is tested and proven. Notes, research, etc, all by hand in class.
Although there have been discussions & articles about Project 2025, VERY FEW focus specifically on Trump's plans for Black Americans
That's why I read all 922 pages of #Project2025 as well as #Agenda47

@jacketrose86 @PortiaMcGonagal This is ME! Raised by my white mom and her white family, had to learn about my Native roots as a young adult. Everyone just pretended I tanned easy. What a weird way to grow up.
@EmberlynSlade@geekyginge That's so wild.

Meeting President and Mrs. Carter was a lifelong dream. The hour I spent in his Sunday school class in Plains in 2017 had a profound impact on me as a person. Happiest of birthdays to you, Mr. President!
@GatesTerre@MPowersNorrell Two of my neighbors, signs in their yards and everything. In SC, he's got a few things going for him. 1. He's from here. 2. He's a man. 3. He's black, so white people feel anti-racist voting for him. If it came out he wasn't straight, that would destroy things for him here.
@tracytaylor66@franklinleonard the immediate and urgent crisis has passed. It is MUCH more important for them to get disaster $$ into the hands of victims.
@tracytaylor66@franklinleonard I worked Disaster Response for many years and I promise you - it is NOT fun when a POTUS or any other big official shows up.
