I respect and support innovation in science and technology. I am against theft, cheating, fakery, dishonesty, and equivocation. It’s not “fair use” to exploit pirated and unlicensed materials and profit from work without the creator’s consent.
it’s about damn time.
tonight is dedicated to all the Asian moms, immigrant moms, single moms, working class moms who sacrificed and swallowed bitterness so their children could walk through new thresholds, break through artificial ceilings, and etch their names into history.
Amid the devastation of the recent shooting, it is inspiring to see Asian Americans – and others – coming together to support one another and the people of #MontereyPark. If you want help, or need help, keep reading to learn how. 🧵
Classrooms & campuses should be safe havens. But the shooting at the UVA comes just after another one at a high school in Seattle.
We will honor the victims—and those in Uvalde, Oxford, Parkland, Sandy Hook, Virginia Tech, & too many others—by demanding an end to gun violence.
🚨 Just one day left to BE A VOTER! 🚨
Whether you're dropping off your ballot in a box today, or stopping by the polls tomorrow morning... have you made your plan to vote yet?
The Nacotchtank people were this region's main residents when Europeans arrived. Later Anglicized to “Anacostia,” Nacotchtank meant “town of traders.” The confluence of the Anacostia & Potomac rivers provided an abundance of resources for this community. #IndigenousPeoplesDay
Your teachers are striking.
Your nurses are striking.
Your railway workers are about to strike.
“Nobody wants to work anymore” is deliberately obtuse. What nobody wants anymore is to work in understaffed, overburdened, underpaid positions so 2 dozen ppl can get rich.
📢: “We want a contract, just and fair, give our students central air!”
Here in #solidarity w/ @ColumbusEA & their community telling @ColsCitySchools that #ColumbusStudentsDeserve safe learning conditions, smaller class sizes, & well-rounded curriculum for their students.
So, as I understand the Supreme Court, the government can arrest and jail you without Miranda rights, execute you even if your lawyer screws up, force you to have a baby, and use tax dollars to support religion.
But it can't protect your right to vote or keep you safe from guns.
ACB, Thomas, and Alito are members of historically oppressed groups. The U.S. Constitution as conceived did not consider them full citizens or human. When I hear representation matters, I think the following: Representation without integrity, morality, & truth is self-defeating.
All students deserve a great public education.
But with its radical ruling in Carson v. Makin, SCOTUS again undermined public schools & the students they serve in favor of funding private religious schools that serve only a few & often discriminate against students & employees.
Today's the last day of #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth, and tomorrow is the start of #PrideMonth. Let's recommit to supporting our marginalized LGBTQ+ youth of color—and to providing all students with the mental health resources that they need.
