Disclaimer; I love my job. I love teaching. It’s all of the other stuff that I didn’t know I was signing up for that makes me angry. Inside the four walls of my classroom I am in heaven. So if I seem negative.....know I love my students. I just hate my “coworkers”. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I know it’s first world problems but I’ve been without internet since Tuesday here in Austin. @GetSpectrum refuses to give a timeline for restoration. Im slowly losing my mind. I can’t work. Can’t do anything. I could be lesson planning but nope. Just dead time. We got power tho

If Black kids are old enough to experience racism, white kids are old enough to read about it.

End qualified immunity.

When I tell you the second the power shut off on Tuesday morning I filled both bathtubs up immediately to ensure we had toilet water for the duration? Im not repeating the horror of what I had to do in 2021. Absolutely not.

Shoutout to all y'all in Austin who filled your bathtub up today

Erasure of/refusal to educate on true history does not protect white children from hurt feelings. It hurts the futures of Black children, Brown children, and all children. And it perpetuates and protects white supremacy.

Black History Month is incomplete if we don’t recognize the role of Haiti in the advancement of black people. As the 1st free black republic, the only nation formed b/c of a successful slave revolt & the 1st nation to forever abolish slavery, Haitian history is black history. 🇭🇹

Reminder: socialism didn’t shut down factories in the Midwest and send jobs overseas, American capitalists did that.

School meals should be free for ALL CHILDREN, no matter their parent's income.

Charging for children to eat somewhere they are legally required to be for the entire day is exploitative.

lol people are SO mad at her but she's right.

[Dr. Justin Zimmerman @JZPhilosophy]

Y’all, a not insignificant number of white people used to have lynching post cards. You honestly think they are unaware of the violence endured by Black people? Be serious.

[Theo Huxtable - Maverick Minded @letgreglive_]

I don’t like working with adults that don’t affirm the full humanity of children. I don’t believe in policing the actions of children when they aren’t causing problems. This is part of the reason kids grow up to be codependent and find themselves in unhealthy connections.
