Today in the U.S., corporations will steal $137 million in wages, rich people will steal $2.75 billion in taxes, and 1,300 people will die from poverty, air pollution, and medical error. Think about who benefits from the news ignoring this and focusing on low-level crime instead.
so interested lately in the erasure of powerful women from discourse. i mean, these ladies do not sound friendly but it is a very cool story. https://t.co/EvpFCkjrvu
@jal_mehta The connected learning framework by Mimi ito et al., what video games have to teach us about literacy and learning by James Paul gee, and instead of education by John Holt.
Good luck!
stoked to see @acluct address youth incarceration in ct. we've got a lot of work to do.
everyone involved - folks pushing for either harsher penalties or community funding, the kids stealing & their families - want safety for ct kids & families. so let's start there.
by 2022, i hope we've learned from our past.
rather than reacting when something goes wrong, we can pro-actively build protective factors for our kids with strong communities, stable families, healthy environments. so no one's car gets stolen bc our village cared for every baby.
@acluct and we've been here before - this is not a new argument. we already chose punitive systems once. if it's not working, let's try something different.
