@NC5 School vouchers have failed time and again in other states. Public funds should remain in public schools. Private schools don't provide equal services, especially to children with special needs such as disability or English language learners.
@NC5 Wow, will this pertain to counties other than Shelby & Davidson? Both of which are opposed to this. It should pertain to the counties whose reps voted for it.
Breaking:
Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee is preparing to announce a plan to dramatically expand Tennessee's controversial school voucher program, allowing K-12 students to receive taxpayer funding for private school regardless of need.

Dear Lord,
Today, I thank You for everything. I also pray for the ability to show gratitude and kindness towards myself. Sometimes, I forget how far I’ve come simply because I am too stressed about tomorrow. May I never downplay my achievements and the things I have. Help me to stop being too hard on myself and to start giving thanks in everything. I may not be where I want to be, but I am thankful that I am not where I used to be. In Jesus' name, Amen. 🙏🏾
@on3 He's right, college football has changed. You want to cross the bridge then you have to pay the toll. You can't cut a chef's ingredients & instruments in half & then ask why the product isn't up to par.

@AfricanArchives@sherylunderwood Racism is evil & not of God, but many racist claim to be the most holy of holy & the only Christians going to heaven. Racism is still in full force now. You can't legislate it away by saying don't read about it or talk about it. We need to do more of both so that we understand
In 1964, a white hotel manager named James Brock poured acid into a whites-only pool at the Monson Motor Lodge after Black activists jumped into the water during a "swim-in" protest.
—On June 18, 1964, motel manager James Brock poured muriatic acid into the swimming pool at the Monson Motor Lodge in St. Augustine, Florida, in an attempt to force out black swimmers who were protesting the hotel's whites-only policy. The incident was part of the St. Augustine Movement, a civil rights campaign that used nonviolent protests to challenge segregation in the city.
Brock's actions were met with outrage from the civil rights community, and they helped to galvanize support for the St. Augustine Movement. The incident also led to a national debate about racism and segregation.
The Monson Motor Lodge is no longer in operation, but the site of the pool where Brock poured the acid is now a memorial to the St. Augustine Movement. The memorial includes a plaque that tells the story of the incident and its significance.
