I wonder how many other school districts across the country are pulling this same switcheroo?????

Do you think any of them are fit enough for the mental gymnastics this requires?

This is part of training for elementary school teachers in Huntsville (AL) City Schools. Apparently, the principal led this meeting at the library, the second of three, that teachers are paid $1000 if they attend all three. Another slide contained this nugget: "White privilege should be viewed as a built=in advantage, separate from one's level of income or effort."

So CRT becomes CRT and we should all look the other way???

So true. Anyone late to this party can't possibly know what it was like for us in real time.

A hundred upvotes for getting that stuck in my head for the rest of the evening.

My 62 year old brother was terminated last week. Pretty late in life to start over.

If it happened the way they say: they would have gotten Baldwin out of there in seconds and circled the wagons. There would have been an unexplained disappearance and a fresh grave in the desert. They always protect their own unless someone steps out of line. So what really happened?

I'm so sorry for your loss my friend. One piece of wisdom that was passed on to me when I lost my husband was this: The loss of a spouse is like no other loss. As painful as any loss can be, the relationship with a spouse is particularly difficult because couples live very intertwined lives. Every choice, action, decision of your everyday life has always been in tandem with a spouse in very small, unnoticeable ways. In my case, my husband was always the one to save twist ties. And to buy Band-Aids. Such inconsequential things until six months after your loss when you need a twist tie and there aren't any. And you cry. There's a reason terms like "other half" or 'better half" are commonly used.
As you navigate grief this might help you understand why this feels different from losing your parents or grands or siblings etc. It is different.

Ordered a sofa made in NC last May. Supposed to take 6 weeks to get. At last agonizing update, expected late December. Seven months!

We noticed a difference when we added the Quercetin and higher C. We'd already been on zinc and D because we knew we were deficient. This week we began the Kroeger Herb wormwood combination for parasites. We're pretty determined to heal ourselves and avoid the healthcare system altogether.
