Smoked a couple of chickens today. I don't know which one was better. First one seasoned with Meat Church Holy Cow rub and dipped in a modified Alabama white sauce off the smoker. Second seasoned with Meat Church Hickory rub and finished with Swamp Tonic (local brand).

There are a lot of folks in education loudly arguing that we need to move faster, faster, faster.

And I can tell you, from the classroom perspective, that anyone saying this definitely has NOT been in a classroom for some time.

a woman in a black and white polka dot shirt with #schitts creek on the bottom Alt: a woman in a black and white polka dot shirt with #schitts creek on the bottom says "Hey, I like sleepovers"

Spent the weekend catching up with HS friends I haven't seen in 25 yrs.

Trying to explain what being a public school educator was like to guys in the tech industry.

Came up w/ the analogy: it's like your kid is having a sleep-over every day for 180 days.

Brought my dad (77 years old). Said he hasn't been to a protest since the 60s.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

What will you do?

Tattoo on upper arm of an artistic interpretation of Mario Savio's "Body's upon the gears" speech.

Had this tattoo done last fall. I gave the artist full freedom to use his vision to bring Mario Savio's "Body's upon the gears" speech to life. This is his visualization of it. Little did I know how prescient this would end up being.

Picture of quote from W.E.B. DuBois's Black Reconstruction in America. "When the Confederates returned to domination, the public schools, which had attained a degree of efficiency never before reached in the South, were greatly curtailed. One hundred and ten of the teachers, many of them native-born, were dismissed at once, and their places were filled with intolerate Confederates."

W.E.B. Du Bois on the white takeover of southern public schools after Reconstruction. Not a coincidence that the chapter, "Back Towards Slavery," follows his analysis of the eventual dedegration of the public school system. Attacks on education are vital to (re)instituting authoritarian rule.

An email that reads, "Hi Mr. Greene, I’m sitting in a two hour AP US History class right now learning a lot of things that I learned in your class almost four years ago, and I just thought that you should know that you are without doubt the my favorite teacher that I’ve ever had and you should warn your students that APUSH is the most boring class in the entire world. Sincerely, Name redacted

Teaching this year has been HARD. This email has refilled my meter quite a bit.

I swear, former students know to hit you with one of these when you're at your lowest.

Anything or anyone using terms like grit or resilience to describe our students & teachers. Stop placing responsibility on people to claw themselves out of poorly managed, harmful systems and then congratulating them with empty words because they survived.

Even if Biden does, I seem to remember Trump saying he would reinstate student loans forgiven by the Biden administration. Mine were forgiven last year (public service), and this worries me to no end.

As I told students this week:

Some people look to history thinking it can give you answers about the present or predict the future. It can’t!

History’s uses are more modest and requires more work from us. It won't give you the answers - but it can suggest questions to ask about the present. 🗃️
