Edited to add Dawand Jones to post... https://www.cincyjungle.com/2023/4/25/23696219/bengals-draft-prospect-dawand-jones-ohio-state-nfl-rumors-news Would have liked Tuli - but they sooooo desperately need interior D-line help

On the positive side of the ledger, Bears did succeed in drafting a premium position of need with the 2nd OT selected in the draft, with an additional future mid round draft pick. However, considering the monster potential of Carter, kinda disappointed that they best they could do was just a...

COMPLETELY anecdotal, but the Ekeh family came from Nigeria about 15ish years ago. I heard about them because one of their sons was accepted to EVERY Ivy league school around 6 years ago. I remember reading or hearing somewhere that the parents started their careers working at Target, so they...

Coleman Hughes is a VERY young black intellectual who I'm sure discusses the cultural differences between Nigerian and black Americans. Here he is about 3 years ago talking about the differences between immigrants from the West Indies and black Americans. I'll try to find somewhere he addresses...

If you like Wilfred Reilly, he's been on this for quite awhile now. Here he is covering much of this ground earlier this year...

Found this interesting and, if Krystal and Sagaar are correct, quite worrying... Proposal for personal SMS messages to be monitored and censored by fact-checkers?

Sorry about the links - left for vacation the next morning and won't be back home for almost 2 weeks... All of the selections in the summer 2020 reading list were taken and subdivided from this overall list: Anti-Racist Resource Guide, compiled by Victoria Lynn Alexander.

I usually prefer to consume podcasts/videos/audible books, but have not personally read/listened to Kendi's work. I can neither confirm nor deny anyone's take on him, but I will admit that other black intellectuals I listen to have caused me to steer away from him. Here's a portion of last...

Side note: I don't do movies in the classroom - but at the end of the year grades are finalized several days before the last day of school; I do like to show my students the movie Spare Parts. Highly recommend it if you haven't seen it... I'm a science teacher in a predominantly Hispanic...

This is where we were at last summer as well... The potential difference this year is that we now have a paid district CRT committee. I don't know for sure what that will mean going forward, but it certainly increases the possibility that we will be implementing some form of curriculum going...

I am a junior high school science teacher, and didn't personally receive a book. It was an Ibram X. Kendi book for adults, so this would have been for teachers. They may have been for the members of the CRT curriculum committee or possibly for social studies or language arts teachers. There...

I've witnessed this as well. In a community where education is HIGHLY valued, I would spend an inordinate amount of time having to deal with helicopter parents. Where I teach now, the challenge is getting more parents to partner with me and increase academic and behavioral expectations for...

An official district wide CRT curriculum committee was formed this Spring; anti-racism books were being distributed to some educators at the end of the end of the school year. I :think: we will be implementing some form of CRT in the classrooms beginning this fall. I don't :know: exactly what...

I am also a teacher; > 99% of my students would be considered poc. The rare white kid found in my district does NOT find themselves in an "oppressor" or "privileged" role. The handful that I have taught over the years have come from deeply impoverished situations, and have had to endure...

Full disclosure: Dr. Robert Malone has both recovered from Covid AND is fully vaccinated. Yours truly, has NOT been infected with Covid, but has been fully vaccinated for well over three months with virtually no obvious persistent side effects. I am NOT an anti-vaxxer, my son has not been...

Dr. Robert Malone cautions against children and young adults being vaccinated, and CDC suspects that those under 30 appear to be more susceptible to heart inflammation after vaccination. mRNA inventor says young adults shouldn't have to get COVID vaccine The CDC's COVID-19 Vaccine Safety...

Dr. Robert Malone (inventor of mRNA vaccine technology), warns that the spike protein is toxic; it doesn't stay localized in the cells that take the injection, but instead travel around the body and freely in the bloodstream. Inventor of mRNA Technology: Vaccine Causes Lipid Nanoparticles to...

Latest advice from the WHO I don't believe the safety of novel mRNA vaccines is settled science at this point in time - at the very least - where it pertains to children, neither does the World Health Organization...

It's difficult to overstate the volume of narratives projected by social media/MSM/Big Tech/academia/etc. I have a suspicion that "the left" isn't really coalesced around a singular position, and that our perceptions are being twisted by the loudest voices - NOT necessarily the most numerous...

Two liberal intellectuals, who care deeply about social justice, discuss some of the objections to anti-racism/CRT mindset (and possibly a more holistic approach to effectively deal with systemic racism). Racism and problems in policing, CRT in schools, pursuing truth, and rigid partisanship...
