not that you should expect anything more than rank idiocy from this pair of racists, but the idea that whiteness means a "high trust" society of "social cohesion" is some of the stupidest shit i have ever heard. these people live in a fantasy land that you could dispel by simply opening a book.

During my 19 year community organizing career, it was a given that we would stay away from schools. There were few quick wins to be had, and it was SO complicated. It's very difficult to build a powerful organization by taking on issues with those two challenges.

there's a thing in moderate democratic politics where it is considered fundamentally illegitimate to deliver results to your own voters; instead, you must propose a better way to implement your adversaries' entire ideological program

Texas schools reported losing more than 14,200 immigrant students last year. The true number is likely even higher, experts say. Latest for @texastribune.org www.texastribune.org/2026/09/30/i...

Texas lost at least 14,200 immigrant students last year

The actual enrollment loss amid increased deportation efforts is much higher as the federal definition that identifies immigrant students is limited, experts said.

If we're serious about raising kids who speak up when something is wrong I think we have a lot of work to do to support them when they do and also help them navigate the challenges and big feelings that come with it. Being that kid is risky. How do we support them in that risk?

I will say, you really can tell, with Ed policy researchers, which ones spent 5-10 years as classroom teachers before going back for a PhD, and which ones didn’t.
