“When day comes, we step out of the shade aflame and unafraid. The new dawn blooms as we free it. For there is always light. If only we’re brave enough to see it. If only we’re brave enough to be it.” — Amanda Gorman

On this day of national mourning, I bid a final farewell to X—a fitting moment to leave behind the noise and seek something better.

In 1984, I went with my mom to El Estadio Olímpico in Santo Domingo to see Los Chicos de Puerto Rico. I’ll never forget getting a kiss on the cheek from Chayanne. 40 years later, I get to dance and watch him perform live, with my mom always in my heart. ❤️ https://t.co/nholwoavNP

If you support eliminating the Department of Education, you do not support our students. Period.

@USEDgov provides funding for:
✅Students w/ disabilities
✅Rural students
✅Programs that make college affordable

This would be bad for students, and bad for America.

Amazing news. Can’t stop laughing! Thank you, @TheOnion!

The Onion won the battle for Infowars, buying Alex Jones’s misinformation hub in a bankruptcy auction. It plans to reintroduce the site as a parody, with support from the families of Sandy Hook victims. https://t.co/8iqmZR4Tvn

Dominican singer Juan Luis Guerra and his band 4.40 won album of the year and record of the year at the 25th annual Latin Grammy awards, on a night when the biggest names of decades past eclipsed some younger stars #LatinGRAMMY https://t.co/Z2unilqQTo

[L Peynado Castro, Ed.D. (ella/she/her) @LPeynado]

¡Juan Luis Guerra y 440 son insuperables! 40 años de trayectoria y siguen como el primer guandul aportando música de calidad y llena de ritmo, sabor y sustancia. Es un privilegio poder disfrutarla y llevar esa tambora y ritmo en las venas. ¡Arriba el merengue y la bachata! 🇩🇴

[El Diario @eldiario]

#14Nov | Así fue la presentación de Juan Luis Guerra en los Grammy Latino la noche de este jueves.

El cantautor dominicano ganó el Mejor Álbum Merengue/Bachata por "Radio Güira".

@Jill_Jorgensen @LPeynado Valuing students’ native language is key leading them to feel valued and empowered. Great article on @UNMSRocks

[Jillian Jorgensen @Jill_Jorgensen]

Thousands of students who speak little or no English have arrived in city schools in the last few years. Many learn in classes where their native language, often Spanish, is rarely or never spoken.

One Lower East Side middle school wants to change that:

To recap, the Republican Party has opposed:

-Paid sick leave
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Tax increases on corporations & the rich
-The expanded Child Tax Credit
-Student debt relief

Doesn't sound like the party of the working class to me.
