Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

Not ideal…

Portland School Board Leaders Want To Try A New Style of Governance Eddie Wang and Michelle DePass want a new School Board to prioritize the bigger picture. But accountability means different things to different members.

Enjoyed talking with Joanna Hou at Willamette Week about school board leadership and superintendent relationship.

Wow!

Hot take, people who hate cities shouldn’t be in charge of cities

Where are the hard-working Americans who screamed, “They’re stealing our jobs”?

You’re getting your wish. Immigrant workers aren’t showing up, and farm owners are hiring.

Got my ID card today and they asked if I was a law student. Couldn’t tell if that was a compliment or not. 🤷‍♂️

This is all very bad.

Cutting research funding would make education less effective and efficient | Brookings Presidents of education research associations explain the impacts of recent funding cuts to the Institute of Education Sciences (IES).

It's been 5 months since we wrote this. I'm still worried.

Today marks the 177th anniversary of the Seneca Falls Convention, a landmark moment in the fight for women’s voting rights that helped pave the way for the 19th Amendment. At the Brennan Center, we continue to fight to ensure every American — regardless of race or gender — can cast a ballot.

Talk about The Wire, Sopranos, Game of Thrones all you want, but the greatest US television program ever made is Sesame Street. It's not even close. 50+ years of treating kids across class, ethnicity, religion not as mini-consumers...but as citizens with a stake in this world.

Thinking about John Lewis and his legacy of fighting for justice. We are a better country because of his leadership.

Dame coming home would make me happy.

Savvy operative types in DC truly believed then and believe now that average Americans are too dumb to understand how government works or why it exists. Educating and defending the Corporation for Public Broadcasting—with its profound impact on people for negligible taxpayer cost—was a layup.

💯 so many in higher ed get leadership positions with little or no training. Feels like the assumption all to often is that if someone is a productive scholar they can figure it out.

one of the things that gets me about so many of the pundits who pontificate about "higher education" when they really mean a handful of elite private institutions is that most of them live within driving distance of either a community college or a non-selective public institution

Really important discussion by @brennancenter.org today on education policy during the Trump Admin. Thank you to John King for your detailed analysis and for encouraging everyone to center public education and teachers at every level of government. @sunychancellor.bsky.social #brennancenter

Love this 🔥
