ACT gets shorter by a third. Where is the data that the new version correlates with any kind of college success? Universities need to start scrutinizing what they’re being sold

Dear people,
That institution is not your friend or family.
They see a resource in you they can extract value from . Act accordingly.

Your good news today!
My friends @ShereemHB and @TFIELDS013 have had the second edition of their great guide debut as #1 on Amazon!
It's a great read for all families considering college.

College admissions have never been a level playing field. But when it comes to which factor gives applicants a bigger leg up at top colleges, legacy admissions wins over race and ethnicity. @edtrust explains how. edtrust.org/p/61618

NO TOP BLACK ATHLETE should consider attending Texas A&M and signing a letter of intent until they fix the mess they created ... REMOVE THEM FROM YOUR LIST!

We can all feel it: D.C just isn’t getting things done for people.
We need representatives who'll take on special interests, get money out of politics, and make our government work for all of us.
That’s why today, I’m announcing my campaign for U.S. Senate in Michigan! ✊🏾

She’s 18. She got accepted to several universities. She picked Morgan State to study mechanical engineering. She vanished last Monday, June 5th. She’s now missed her prom. She missed her Motivation High School graduation Friday. Her name is Shalayla Porter. 1/2

You’ve never been to the
Democratic Plantation?
It’s a mythical place where ignorant negroes throw away votes, spend all their money on Jordans & plan all the Black on Black crime!

In case @bethanyshondark (or anybody else) actually wants to know what “woke” really means vs. what it has been turned into. #UnitedShades

Why is @collegeboard silent on Florida's Don't Say Black (h/t @ritchietorres).
One would think that an organization that is so excited to tout its AP program would have a very public statement to make.

A gentle reminder to myself that my research is an act of liberation and that I am worthy of such freedom.

This Banned Books Week, I hope you’ll take a moment to appreciate the stories that need to be told. And I hope you’ll join me in reminding anyone who will listen—and even those who won’t—that the free, robust exchange of ideas has always been at the heart of American democracy.
