Rep. Justin Pearson is delivering a word we all must hear. Please listen.
“How many of you would want to be spoken to like that?” @Justinjpearson “There is something in the decorum of this body that allows that!” PREACH
A teacher should not be expected be a rehabilitation centre for a traumatised child.
There aren’t enough capable adults in schools right now to meet the needs of students.
Albert Bender is a writer, activist and attorney of Cherokee descent. He has long been an advocate for Native American cultural preservation and justice. Tonight, he shares his brief but spectacular take on upholding indigenous cultures. to.pbs.org/3wZbUjV
There’s literally not enough bodies in schools to accommodate student needs in any way. Folks who do interventions get pulled to sub every day. Ts get pulled to cover other classes every day. It’s so painfully unsustainable yet we’re talking about test scores.
The research is clear: Let the children play! If you want smart, healthy, well-rounded children it pays to invest in recess.
New report shows 400 cops were at Uvalde, and they waited for 76 minutes to act. 400 trained good guys with guns & body armor couldn’t stop 1 mass shooter—and GOP thinks the solution is More Cops, More guns, armed teachers, & fewer doors? This stupidity is actually deadly. Smh.
The Cuyahoga River in 1967 vs The Cuyahoga River in 2022 The difference? The EPA and The Clean Water Act—both of which the right wing SCOTUS just gutted. #ExpandTheCourt
In our abolition lab with formerly incarcerated young people, I asked what they dreamed of. Here's a few responses to remind us of what we are fighting for in increasingly violent times: 1/
JUST PUT ONE DOOR ON KAVANAUGH’S HOUSE AND ARM HIS FAMILY PROBLEM SOLVED
This is heartbreaking and powerful Son of Buffalo shooting victim asks Senate: "Is there nothing that you personally are willing to do to stop the cancer of white supremacy & the domestic terrorism it inspires? Because if there is nothing—then...you should yield your positions."
Ever wonder what companies relocating to Tennessee tell their staffs about the place they are moving to? A look at what they should say in my latest column at @TNLookout. tennesseelookout.com/2022/06/06/com…
This is my daughter. She just turned 9. Here is why I would never allow her to play middle or high school sports if we lived in Ohio…
Legislators responded to the 2018 Parkland school shooting by hiring police officers in every elementary, middle and high school in Florida. It didn’t make students safer. Instead, it led to this: washingtonpost.com/education/2020…
Cops stood outside the school while the killer rampaged inside. Onlookers yelled at them to go in. They didn’t. One parent urged bystanders: “Let’s just rush in because the cops aren’t doing anything like they are supposed to.” @AP story: apnews.com/article/uvalde…
From the Washington Post: "Two Uvalde police officers and a school resource officer fired at the shooter, but it did not stop him from entering the building." There were armed people at the scene. It didn’t stop him.

Senator Chris Murphy (@ChrisMurphyCT): "The 14 kids dead in an elementary school in Texas right now. What are we doing? What are we doing? Just days after a shooter walked into a grocery store to gun down African American patrons we have another Sandy Hook on our hands."

I replied to someone that complained that @ehanford podcast blames teachers. It doesn’t. What I keep coming back to this how someone can listen to this podcast and worry about them grown-up selves. This is about getting all kids reading. Let’s just go.
TN GOP to teachers: Y’all are union thugs, glorified babysitters, and groomers—but hey, here’s a gun to carry in class. BTW, you’re the only one liable.
@GovBillLee And your law breaking commissioner is still the best candidate to lead this, right? @GovBillLee @jjosephwilliams @TNedu
As a parent, *I* don’t want it I’ve heard all year about parental rights and parental choice, only to have this extreme legislature force dangerous and asinine policies on us
How did we get to the point where parents think a “Calming Banana” is a viable solution to a student punching his teacher in the face and breaking his glasses?
Plan B is an emergency contraceptive The fact that the fascist GOP calls it an “abortifacient” tells you one thing: They’re gonna ban it
As the father of a daughter, I am horrified by this. Olivia Rodrigo passed out an abortifacient at her concert in St. Louis last night. This was sponsored by the “Missouri Abortion Fund.” Many of her fans are CHILDREN. Abortion hurts women. Physical damage of course, but also…
Crazy thought- maybe Congress should ban the guns used to slaughter kids and not tiktok.

Jesse is running against Gillespie in MEMPHIS…
John Gillespie's lack of integrity was on full display at our State Capital today. Not only did he subvert the will of the people of Memphis, he did so with a glaring lack of honesty towards the grieving parents of a dead son. His actions are truly shameful, and I will work…
MNPS’ is recognized as a natl leader in learning acceleration by Stanford & Harvard. We’re 1 of 2 large, urban districts in the Top 10 for BOTH math & reading. Yet, the TN House refused to recognize the incredible work done. It is outrageous to our district’s teachers & staff.
This moment speaks volumes to the mood in the Tennessee House. GOP Rep. Scott Cepicky makes motion to send HJR 998 (praising Metro Nashville Schools) back to committee. You see hands go up in objection. Speaker @CSexton25 bangs gavel, then says it’s “little late” to object! 1/2
This is @NC5 photojournalist @DevinPhotoJ's angle of @JRClemmons and @CepickyTn64's encounter on the House Floor today. We missed the first couple seconds because we were following floor debate at the time.
If an Ohio parent 🙋🏻♀️ working full time 👩🏻🍳 has 1 infant and 1 toddler 👶🏻👧🏻 at an average cost childcare center 🏢 then ‼️$10.52‼️ of every hour they work goes to childcare costs. Yet Ohio has is DEAD LAST as far as state eligibility thresholds for child care assistance.
We must remember and build on the legacy of Georgia's greatest son and arguably the greatest American, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
With my mother. Daddy’s funeral. He wasn’t assassinated because he wanted his children to be judged “by the content of their character.” But for dismantling racism, poverty & militarism. He wanted corrective measures to eradicate racism, not the delusion that it doesn’t exist.
Wow I still got this wrong. Segmenting and blending……
