Title IX violations and age discrimination? Looks like Albany is doubly at fault, so I guess the plaintiffs have a point.

I don’t know why anybody’s upset. They seem happy in the photo.

I would honestly be astonished if Simpson doesn’t turn out to have CTE.

Or maybe they just hated him.

It seems like an odd, very badly phrased, and age inappropriate assignment. I might see an assignment similar to this one for high schoolers, but I would phrase the question as “Imagine you are a KKK member in the 1950s, how were you recruited to the movement?” because that would focus more on motivation and

I don’t even know if she was stupid. I feel like a lot of the time that this sort of thing happens (see controversies over assignments and classrom activities having to do with slavery) it’s a teacher who is a little ahead of the curve and people just aren’t ready for it. I’d rather my kid do an assignment where she

You go to Times Square once. The first time I ever saw it, it took my breath away. It really is an incredibly impressive mass of humanity and noise and light and technology and commercialism.

Well this article is some serious clickbait. I wanted to read about why I should avoid Times Square, and got nothing more than what the freaking article’s title gave me. Ridiculous.

Your comment literally could have replaced this blog post. I’ve not seen this much hand wringing over a dopey but fun book in a long time.

Again, punish the kids or whatever, but why do the losers get to advance? You might be teaching a lesson to one group,

So... This will never make it out of the grays, but here goes:

I got an idea. Why not wait and watch the show to see how it is?

I feel like she just picked albums she knew of and then randomly assigned some numbers to them.

i humbly submit thatthis: 88. Twenty One Pilots, Blurryface, be replaced with this:

No need to get all red in the face, at least they relocated the family.

Your essay makes me uncomfortable. I honestly don't know how to help or be an ally. I work with kids in the family court system, either through abuse/neglect or juvenile delinquency/incorrigability. I want to fight for these kids, the majority of whom are POC. How do we do that without becoming a "good white person"?

"Good white people" demonstrate the qualities that all good people demonstrate: kindness, empathy, compassion, thoughtfulness, unconditional love. These are the values I try to instill in my students; that parents try to instill in their children.
