So you are guiding them a GREAT deal more than you originally suggested.

No, it’s not always bad to ‘give away’ conclusions. Do you teach fascism in the same way? It’s one thing to teach why something arose/flourished, it’s different to have them look at ‘good’ and ‘bad’ pictures of the life of slaves and leave it up to them which to believe. In most cases they’ll probably end up arguing…

Even with your changed topic, it’s a terrible worksheet. Just for starters, let’s compare the economies and standard of living in the North and the South prior to the Civil War. The (near) absense of slavery in the North had somehow led to a much stronger economy and better standard of living for the vast majority of…

You’ve been well answered as to this specific worksheet, but I’ll add that humans have done lots of things for thousands of years which were not to their benefit. Compare the economy and standard of living for everybody, North and South, before the civil war. Which society was more successful? The society that had…

Giving them minstrelry masks was not well thought-out. Dumbar’s poem was about ‘the mask,’ but minstrelry was mostly masks that white people wore to mock black peopl, not ones black people wore themselves. If they wanted to make the same point, they should have used smiling photos of the kids themselves or had the…

“I want to have a baby with you” is just behind, “My wife and I don’t even sleep together anymore; we’re just together for the kids,” and “I never thought I could feel this way about anyone- you’ve brought me back to life” in the married dude playbook.

No, I can’t believe this has to be said, but no, it is not true that women kill more men than men kill women. Women make up about 10 of murderers. That means that women killed about 1,300 people in 2016. Just men who killed their female intimate partner nearly equals that number. That doesn’t include women killed in…

No, middle ground would be at the very least a ban on assault type rifles and large magazines, beefed up background checks, training, mental health evaluations, and a waiting period. The extreme would be banning all guns- now we have access to virtually all guns with few federal restrictions. If I had my way, I’d be…

I keep hearing she was ‘overwhelmed by nerves,’ etc. I think it’s more likely that she’s dealing with PTSD- puking is a common symptom especially when reliving the event. It undermines the seriousness of the situation to say she’s just got charming ‘nerves’ or ‘stage fright.’

Ok, Millenials written across his shirt made me think that they were trying to say he is or thought of himself as a millenial rather than a boomer.

Gen Z

Good meme, but who think Nealon is a Millenial? He’s a boomer, not even a young boomer.

You say you would be paid less than a more successful player- Martina is the clearly more successful player.

So? I’m assuming you have neither the credentials nor the name recognition to make you an asset to their Wimbledon coverage. Both Martina and McEnroe have both and yet are paid wildly different rates for no discernable reason. BBC is claiming that it’s because he does more work and is the ‘face of Wimbledon along with…

How does the fact that she makes between 1/3 and 1/2 more for working an additional 50 (FIFTY) weeks prove their point? It actually does the complete opposite and proves they are full of shit about paying for equal work.

Well, you’d be wrong. She’s not the only commentator out there (Evert, Shriver, Carillo, Austin, Hernandez that I can think of off hand)and she almost certainly didn’t know how much McEnroe was being paid to even start bargaining. This is something ALL women deal with.

They have loudly and angrily rejected suggestons of bringing new manufacturing jobs to the area- remember how they reacted when Hillary suggested it? And why the hell should they only deign to do exactly the type of work they prefer and are too good for office work? Most of them won’t feel that way after about 30 btw…

I remember how eagerly these people greeted the idea of jobs other than in coal mines. I think they tried to run Hillary out on a rail for even suggesting bringing other industry and jobs to the area. These people....I have little sympathy left for an industry which has always been horrible and dying for generations…

He’s not attacking her looks in a gendered way though. How is his caricature of her any different from the others of men in the above article? Are people just not allowed to caricature women at all, but it’s ok if it’s a man?

So, you’re basically saying that to people who would actively avoid watching a tennis match, he’s more famous? I have difficulty imagining that there are many people in the world who have heard of McEnroe, but not Navratolova. They played during the same years and were equally famous, though she was the far, far more…
