@Sassafrass_84 W1 students invest in stocks. W2 buy car. W3 buy house. W4 calculate college $. W5 create a budget. Then use stock $ to create a business or non-profit plan. Bonus, they learn to use spreadsheets as well. They love it! Just teach it, don't ask permission.

US Senator and war hero John McCain passed away five years ago on this day. He was one of the few who predicted exactly how Putin was planning to "rebuild the Soviet empire".

The video below is from an 2014 interview:

"Between 2000 and 2017, the global maternal mortality rate fell by 38%. In low-income countries, the decline was more dramatic still, with a reduction of 46%." — The radical drop in maternal mortality was a public health miracle @tonymmorley for @bigthink https://t.co/5s2yjfTAnf

Reminder that every time you and another person vehemently argue on-line, based on a post that inflamed your emotions, somebody plotted the outcome and is making money from it.

In the late 1980s, nearly a million cases of guinea worm disease worldwide. In 2021, only 15. Education, safe drinking water, and a lot of cooperative work. Well done!

The United States is committed to providing Ukraine with ‘the weapons it needs’ to defend itself against Russia, U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan said as Ukraine seeks more military aid https://t.co/7RGnE8z17z

[Liv Boeree @Liv_Boeree]

Crazy thought but… what if the world is roughly as sane/mad as it’s always been, but we’ve sleepwalked into an AI-driven attention economy that artificially amplifies the craziest opinions on Earth and feeds them to us 24/7, utterly skewing our perception of reality? Huh.

Unbelievable courage- Afghan girls protesting for their right to an education. They continue to show such bravery and resilience. We hear you #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

A woman from Mariupol came to Hungary with 4 kids.

Her own.

Her sister’s kid (mother went to find water and disappeared).

Child of her killed neighbors.

She was running for an evacuation bus and saw a kid, sitting on the street next to his dead parents. She took him too.

[Secretary Antony Blinken @SecBlinken]

Education is a human right. The United States rejects the Taliban’s excuses for reversing their commitment to the people of Afghanistan that all Afghans would be able to return to school at all levels today.

[Malala Yousafzai @Malala]

I had one hope for today: that Afghan girls walking to school would not be sent back home. But the Taliban did not keep their promise. They will keep finding excuses to stop girls from learning – because they are afraid of educated girls and empowered women. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

[Hank Green @hankgreen]

Increasing gasoline costs affect people outside of cities way more than inside of cities. I agree that we should not be buying Russian oil right now, but if you live in a city, please don't talk about how it's not that big of a deal.

It's a very big deal for a lot of people.

Paul Farmer simply did not accept the idea that inequality of health-care access is natural or inevitable, @johngreen writes in guest opinion.
