Our statement:

[katie worth @katieworth]

We know what the publishers chose to do. Suffice to say, biology textbooks neglected to describe biology's organizing principle for the majority of the 20th century.

[katie worth @katieworth]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ We'll find out tomorrow if science textbook publishers have changed at all, or whether they're just as willing to sell science students up the river as they were a century ago.

Texas officials are about to reject a bunch of science textbooks cuz they talk about climate change. 👀👀

(Reminder that Texas just spent 3 months straight under a heat dome. In parts of the Gulf Coast, the ocean reached 101 degrees this summer.) 1/

Today: What are some American school kids being taught about climate change?

Journalist @katieworth went inside schools where she says the curriculum is corporate-backed climate "miseducation." https://t.co/dWNOGD0LcK

Ideology trickles from elected officials through education departments and into classrooms. And textbook publishers are complicit.

An excerpt from @katieworth's new book, Miseducation, in @PopSci (h/t @SaraKileyWatson):

[Texas Observer @TexasObserver]

A new book by @katieworth shows how conservative ideologues and fossil fuel money have crept into public-school curricula in Texas—and across the nation.

[Democracy Now! @democracynow]

Fossil fuel companies are directly influencing science education in schools across the country, reports @katieworth, by “getting to students through story books, through presentations, through field trips.” She says the issue is “ubiquitous” and “insidious.”

@SecNielsen Attorney General Sessions publicly announced the policy, Madame Secretary. It's even published on the Dept of Justice web site.

What kind of fools do you take Americans for?
