Math education is complex. It can’t be reduced to single studies or one-size-fits-all claims. NCSM’s new position paper offers a balanced, equity-centered, research-informed alternative—one that honors the real nuance of teaching + learning. Read more → mathedleadership.org/positio…

Look how cute Ruby is! Also, they are planning to just get rid of the department of education this week. All federal protections for students with IEPs and 504 plans will be gone bc there will be one to enforce them. Our civil rights destroyed. Fight back.

Russ Vought devised these illegal holds on funding for disaster relief, medical research, student aid, child care, and nutrition, as well as purges of the federal workforce. If confirmed as OMB Director he’ll keep this up for four years. The Senate should reject his nomination.

A couple people have emailed asking me about the ableism of “weird” as a campaign strategy, especially pertaining to the autistic community. I don’t think it’s necessarily ableist — There’s always been good weird, bad weird and neutral weird.

Frederick Douglass: No man can put a chain about the ankle of his fellow man w/o at last finding the other end fastened about his own neck. Juneteenth doesn’t mark the emancipation of the enslaved, but emancipation of the US. We shld all rejoice & work twd our mutual liberation.

Los Angeles, I am literally BEGGING you to turn in your ballots. The return rate is so low for anyone under 34, and if Caruso wins, we are screwed. Rents will skyrocket even more, the unhoused will be treated like criminals, climate change legislation will be void. It’s BAD.

I’ve avoided tweeting about the white supremacist massacre so not to dishonor the dead in anyway. But I keep obsessing over the constant drumbeat of the last year abt the dangers of CRT when the literal violent danger of the white supremacy CRT exposes has been downplayed/denied.

A few weeks ago, parents, activists and educators in a red state where Republicans hold a legislative supermajority successfully beat back an anti-history (CRT) law, & yet I saw no national coverage of it at all. This says something important about media. indystar.com/story/news/educ…

Happy Birthday to Frederick Douglass, the greatest American ever born. When he self-emancipated, Douglass chose Valentine's Day as his birthday because his mother gave him a heart-shaped cake right before she was sold away. This country has taken so much, and yet we keep giving.

When you study racism as long as I have, little can be truly shocking, but my God, this was just breathtaking and heartbreaking and shows once again how little so many in this society acknowledge the basic humanity of Black children. It's also why investigative reporting MATTERS.
Three police officers went to an *elementary* school in Tennessee & arrested four Black girls. One girl fell to her knees. Another threw up. Police handcuffed the youngest, an 8 yo with pigtails. Their supposed crime? Watching some boys fight — and not stopping them. (THREAD)

The second gentleman will begin teaching at Georgetown Law. Which means the First Lady & the Second Gentleman are both teachers. How exciting.
