Shared w/ @Potus the hope he inspired in my students & a letter they wrote. Years later, the impact of that moment still resonates with them

Yes background knowledge is vital though authors avoid the relevant question of whose ‘cultural knowledge’ gets elevated over others and who gets to decide.
Most times it is a Eurocentric culture knowledge base funded by test companies that neglect wide swaths of US students.
New article from E. D. Hirsch and me on (1) the evidence for the importance of knowledge in reading; (2) why it’s taken so long for people to acknowledge the evidence; (3) what we predict if the role of knowledge is taken seriously. educationnext.org/rediscover…

Hey @AmericanAir - I know its busy. Was on hold for 3 hours yesterday and today with nobody. Flight home was cancelled Saturday and you rebooked us to Tuesday morning. But no hotel or food vouchers for 3 nights. Still trying to talk to someone for help so thought I'd try this!

One of the things that saddens me about this whole "paid protestors" conspiracy, is that they can't really fathom that people care for their communities, and that folks actually want to help their neighbors.
What a sad existence to never feel that kind of community love.
🚨 BREAKING: The “No-Go-Zone” in Minneapolis is getting fully stocked like a pop-up leftist supply depot, free hand warmers, winter gear, coffee, food, milk, you name it.
This is PROFESSIONAL-grade logistics. Someone is BANKROLLING this autonomous zone.

All but one of GBs losses have been self implosions: Cleveland, Carolina, Philly, and now this one at Chicago. Just face palms of epic proportions. 🤦♂️#gopackgo

Amazing how a whole game can turn on a single play. In control and then turnover/injury just completely wrecks this game #GoPackGo

Rodgers is notorious for having a continental shelf size chip on his shoulder over seemingly small snubs let along from the team who moved on from him.
I hope I'm wrong but I think it will be vintage Rodgers with 2 or 3 touchdowns during his revenge game.

Well, I hope everyone can now slow their roll with this packers team. I predicted the Vikes to win the north and sticking with it.

Coming back in for one more post (albeit long post) before removing app again...
Woke up pissed, scared, sad, numb, and worried this morning. It is the day I have been trying to convince myself wouldn’t happen or that there was some miracle that could prevent this impending

and IMMUNE from criminal acts that it perceives is exercising the core powers of the presidency. So he has the power of a king and oligarch all rolled into one.

If you read this far and share my concerns, rest today and be okay in feeling whatever it is you feel. This is who we are as a country…but it doesn’t have to be.
Tomorrow continues the fight for justice and we are in this together.
