YouTube video by ABC12 Local teacher of AP African American Studies shares opinion this year's halftime show

Had an awesome experience with my local ABC network discussing the Super Bowl performance from the perspective of an AP AAS teacher ✊🏾🤎

I don’t share this for sympathy or advice.

I’m an exceptional teacher with a decade of experience. I’m doing phenomenal work in my classroom and in my school. My students are thriving.

And I cannot enjoy any of it because I’m running on empty all the time.

Analyzing Imagery in Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl Show

If anyone needs a lesson tomorrow, I made this real quick on Kendrick’s halftime performance. It’s going to be my Black Fact of the Day, because Black History isn’t just the past, it’s the present as well 🤎✊🏾

Anyway. There is a glass jar in the corner of our collective house right now. Keep adding your change to it when you can. It's going to add up.

And it was always a shock to see that the coins that, separately, felt worth almost nothing actually added up to what seemed to be a huge, earth-shattering amount. That was real money in there! Real money that was made out of just...change. 🧵

And then, one day, the jar would be opened. Maybe when it grew too heavy to lift, maybe when an expense came up, maybe just before a vacation. 🧵

Not enough to miss. Not enough to notice. Just a few cents here and there: a tiny, insignificant donation. Just what could be spared. An offering. 🧵

Remember those giant glass jugs that used to sit in living room corners of some people's houses? People would empty their pants pockets at the end of the day and toss the loose coins in--a nickel here, a quarter there. 🧵

Most of us are not in a position to do anything huge or earth-shattering to combat the creeping fascism, and so things feel really hopeless. It feels impossible that something huge enough to save us will come along. It feels like there is nothing we can do to make it happen.

But. 🧵

I was led to believe by R.E.M. that I would feel a lot better about this.

The existence of the song "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" in the animated Grinch movie starring Benedict Cumberbatch implies the existence of a Who Jesus.

So I asked AI what that might look like.

You're welcome. God bless us, every one.

Thank you @npr.org

This is how you write a headline about THE Nikki Giovanni’s passing.

I am obsessed! Such amazing choices by actors and director while still remaining true to the original. So great.

Just got back from Wicked and I regret to inform everyone that I will be entering every room henceforth with "IT'S MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"

This is diabolical.

If you are interested in the fight against book bans, I'd love to invite you to listen to this episode, where we had a chance to deep dive into the philosophy of fighting for our kids' freedom to read.

Kelly is one of the nation's foremost experts on bans, and it was a pleasure to chat with her!

This looks more like HISD's current libraries.

First, they came for librarians. Now, the #Texas State Legislature is coming for booksellers with Senate Bill SB 88. So, if a 17-year-old wanders into our art section and looks at a book containing a nude photograph/painting, we could be prosecuted. #bannedbooks #bookstore #bookstores #censorship

Across the country, people are starting meal preparations and traveling to be with friends and family.
