I love this. It moves from the teacher and book as expert and adds an important new expert... the community. Image being in science class and being told expertise is everywhere but home. More of this please !!! #ngss edutopia.org/article/using-…
I know it's not what people want to hear but the best thing I've done for my ADHD is cut myself slack. It's not planners, or medication, or productivity hacks. It's recognizing that the world is hard for me to be in and I need to support myself through it with self-compassion.
SPREAD THE WORD: You can now order another (third) round of free #COVID at-home tests from the government via USPS... ...and this time it's 8 free tests for your household, rather than just four. Order your tests here: special.usps.com/testkits
My favourite species of birds are the ones named by people who clearly hate birds. (thread)
So much of history has been whitewashed for the sake of making it palatable for white consumption that we are starting to perpetuate things that are not only misconceptions, but outright lies. A lot of what you're told about protests, MLK, etc. is wrong. A thread.
Ever wondered why newsrooms/mainstream media outlets are disproportionately white? Especially when it comes to leadership? The unpaid internship. They could afford to live in NYC for a summer w/o pay; they then had the necessary experience/contacts to stay & rise the ranks

In Whitefish, Montana, a young woman named Samantha Francine is confronted by a large white man with balled fists, shouting, "Black Lives Matter? Fuck you! Fuck you! Fuck you!" She does not look away. This is America, 2020. (Photo by Grace Jensen) facebook.com/photo.php?fbid…
As a black audio engineer, I thought I would take a second to talk about Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRADs), which are effectively sound cannons. They have been used to disperse crowds in the past, so I want to talk about them now as they can permanently damage your hearing.
This is insane, taking away insulin from a diabetic person ...
Cincinnati police were filmed arresting young activists and withholding insulin from one who is diabetic — the group was peacefully protesting and trying to vacate the scene when officers apprehended them for breaking curfew (warning: distressing)
I laid in my bed in tears last night. The estimated life expectancy of a Black trans woman is only 35 years old. I’m 36 today. I’m more than a statistic, and so are my sisters. Everyday we fight for racial & gender justice, is another day we stand the chance of beating the odds.
“The world was gaslit by misreporting about George Floyd’s autopsy. As concerned physicians, we write to deconstruct the misinformation & condemn the ways this weaponization of medical language reinforced white supremacy at the torment of Black Americans.” blogs.scientificamerican.com/voices/george-…
The NYPD’s budget is $6,000,000,000 That’s more than the city spends on health, homelessness, youth development and workforce development combined.
Here’s the thing. Pepper spray can kill. Rubber bullets can kill. Both are being used to “disperse” people who are peacefully exercising their first-amendment rights of speech *and assembly*. There’s no excuse for it, no justification. It’s violent, oppressive, unconstitutional.
