The ability to spend time with your newborn baby should not depend on where you work, your income, or your zip code. We must end the absurdity of being the only major country not to guarantee paid family and medical leave.

Folks ask why I question trauma-informed education (TIE). I love ANTIRACISM-informed-TIE. The trouble isn't TIE, but TIE without antiracism. That TIE tends to ignore traumas of racism in institutions full of racism. That TIE perpetuates racism. We all should be questioning that.

One of the most common misunderstandings in popular "DEI" education work. A strengths-based view is important, but it's not the salve for a racist ideology. The only salve for that: #antiracism.

After further medical evaluation, Simone Biles has withdrawn from the final individual all-around competition. We wholeheartedly support Simone’s decision and applaud her bravery in prioritizing her well-being. Her courage shows, yet again, why she is a role model for so many.

My 5th great-grandfather fought bravely for the Revolution. As a reward, he was given 10k acres in NC. Meanwhile, enslaved Black folk who fought for the revolution typically weren't even given freedom, let alone land. But tell me again how racism wasn't foundational to America?

Whites often say Black people are dependent (on govt, etc). But if you have a direct ancestor who was an enslaver, you owe your LIFE to Black restraint. Had they killed your relative to get free (which they were morally entitled to do) you wouldn't exist. Who's the dependent one?

There are more laws against schools teaching Critical Race Theory than schools that teach Critical Race Theory.

North Carolina student Evan Lopez was denied his diploma for wearing a Mexican flag at graduation. Lopez wore the flag in tribute to his immigrant family, but Asheboro school officials maintain that it was a distraction and violated the ceremony’s dress code

People are learning about Tulsa for the first time. Don’t stop. Educate yourself about all of this. All of it. That fuse of fury was unleashed all across America and some would rather we forget. We cannot. We must not.

Bill Nye is back at it — this time, using science to show why racism makes no sense

Today marks 67 years since Brown v. Board of Education and our public schools are more segregated than ever. We still have urgent work to do to live up to Brown’s promise to close opportunity gaps for students of color and those most underserved by systemic inequality.

I know it may come as a shock to right-wing "Christians" like this bozo, but as American Jews, Israel is not our "home country." This is. The real question is why right-wing Jews put up with this intrinsically anti-Jewish framing, which casts us as outsiders in our own country...
