I teach chemistry. Everything can be repaired, if you have enough energy. Don’t give up hope. The Dream is not dead, it its just on its fifth deferral.

Since it is going to go that way anyway, the prosecutor should just gives his assent and stop the bleeding of cash the city is already looking at. Fighting it will just cost more money.

The prosecutors should be beating down the door to prosecute Rizzo. It is their duty to protect the people and to protect the sanctity of the damn court. Do your duty.

Thank you Anne. Your articles piss me off, but I need to see this shit.

Thanks for bringing this up Cameron. I usually get my RPG news first from Gamebanshee, but you were not far behind. (And obviously this site is better for overall game stuff).

If someone is trying to convince me I am wrong because of facts, I fact check. I can always hope they will realize they are in error. I know in most cases people stick to the “facts” they know first and faced with a different analysis retrench, but I can always hope.

I did not intend to blame the entire state. I am just disappointed that Florida, where half of my family lives, once again gets caught up with embarrassing crap.

Yes, if it was true, it would be time to face hard facts.

I got you. Just giving my own anecdotal experience that race based intelligence is bs.

I teach a school with a very high newcomer population. Race has nothing to do with whether that kids can cut it in the classroom.

A lot of them don’t know math...which is probably one of the reasons we have so many problems with that subject.

A white supremacist argues that white people are a superior race. That is what makes her a white supremacist.

You do realize that that are more genetic differences in ethnicity than race, and there have been zero studies showing that race or ethnicity actually affects intelligence.

AP history has improved a LOT since then. A People’s History of the United States by Howard Zinn is regularly used in classrooms. When you prepare for the free response questions you should disproportionately focuses on women and people of color.

Not all white female teachers are white supremacists. That brush is too broad.

Out of curiosity, when exactly was the largest economy in the world armed with the largest military in the world not a super power?

Yes, there were other factors in the Civil War. However, if there was no slavery there was no war, period.

I think its both, and both are wrong. The second one is more wrong of course, but teachers are not preachers for a reason.

What state is that? My history major was 10 courses long.
