I just can’t imagine wanting an entire secure ballroom for one man and not wanting gun reform for every child in America.

@KirkPenner @NewsChannelNE Oh, hey.
BLM, pride , PP, and Ice are not political. Society has made them so.
But, thanks for playing.

Vote him out

Bad Bunny walked out in a #64 jersey with “OCASIO” on the back.

Not Bad Bunny.

Not Benito.

His real name.

His family name.

Then he grabbed the mic and said:

“My name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio. And if today I’m here at the Super Bowl, it’s because I never, never stopped believing in myself.”

In Spanish.
No translation.
Even the jumbotron was in Spanish.

And I watched the whole thing with a translator on.

Because the message was that important to me.

They said he was “un-American.”

They said nobody would understand him.

They said having him perform was “ridiculous.”

And he SHOWED OUT!

He brought out Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin.

He staged a wedding on the field.

He recreated a bodega.

He gave us a whole scene of family and love.

He humanized an entire culture on the world’s biggest stage.

All in his native language.

And he didn’t flinch.

His lyrics were clear messages:

“They want to take the river from me, and the beach too. They want my neighborhood and for my grandma to leave.”

“I should have taken more photos when I had you. Hopefully my loved ones will never move.”

And that last line:

“Ojalá que los míos nunca se muden.”

Hopefully my loved ones will never move.

That’s about families being separated.

Forced to leave.

Displacement.

Yeah, he didn’t chase the mainstream.

He made the mainstream come to him.

He put his family name on his back and told 120 million people exactly who he is.

And I’m here for ALL of it!👏🏽

@LauraLoomer Then move.

This is an important time to stand up for language education. Teachers of multilingual learners, or English learners, in our nation are important. Every teacher is a language teacher, and every student is a language learner. Language is in every classroom.

Language is an asset. It’s part of our identity. It’s integral. It’s culturally rooted, and it’s ever evolving.

Never forget how important you are as an educator of all students, including those who speak languages other than English, and are learning English as an additional language.

@PeteRicketts You are an embarrassment to NE. Not everyone thinks like you. Maybe we should vote for a gov-oh, wait! Right.

@hwinkler4real @gavinthomas2015 Obviously.
