UN Women's report on femicide showed that, globally, the most dangerous place for a woman to be was in her home, where the majority of women die at the hands of men. theguardian.com/global-devel…

Can we all agree that when #KamalaHarris wins we simply never speak of Trump again? I’m just so tired of everything to do with him.

I was a diehard pro-lifer & for abortion bans. But I wasn't taught that abortion rates go down more under Dems. I saw my side was just pro-birth, willing to sacrifice mothers for a culture war. Bans don't stop abortion, but they do endanger women I'm pro-choice bc I'm pro-life.

MAGAs condemning FEMA for running out of funds this Hurricane season should know: 1. This has happened now two years in a row 2. GOP led House controls FEMA spending & budgeting FEMA is short on funds because House MAGAs don't believe in climate change & don't know how to budget

Let’s be clear: This is illegal and unconstitutional. The American people had voted. The courts had ruled. The Electoral College had met and voted. The Governor in every state had certified the results and sent a legal slate of electors to the Congress to be counted. The Vice President has no constitutional authority to tell states to submit alternative slates of electors because his candidate lost. That is tyranny. Our institutions held on Jan 6 because Mike Pence refused to violate his oath to the Constitution. Trump picked JD Vance because Vance will do whatever Trump wants, including violating the Constitution. They are both far too dangerous to serve. It’s our duty to stop them.
Q. Would you have certified the 2020 election? JD Vance: No. “I would have asked the states to submit alternative slates of electors and ask the country to have a debate” Disqualifying

Just catching up on the UK riot situation. This is… such a reasonable response and the only way we’re really going to solve the social media crisis. Digital/media literacy are incredibly important and need to be a focus in classrooms.

Apparently people think the #KamalaWalz2024 rally photos are AI or photoshopped. So here are some of mine from the rally yesterday:

The average life expectancy for transgender individuals is about 32 years. I am terrified for my queer kids. How can I protect them when they are vilified all over media? How do I combat this?

Extreme MAGA Republicans have made a habit out of constantly attacking our trans community, spewing cruel rhetoric, and stripping away rights. Enough is enough. It’s time for Congress to pass my Trans Bill of Rights.

“The No. 1 reason teachers leave the profession is the pay. The No. 1 reason parents don’t want their children to become teachers is the pay. So, the No. 1 solution...must be increasing teacher salaries.” —John Arthur, 6th grade teacher and @myUEA member edweek.org/teaching-learning…

What we are witnessing, once again, is the alignment of white power against racial justice and redress. We now have a legal landscape that takes the very laws created to eliminate the anti-Black caste system and uses them destroy racial justice efforts. The Supreme Court has determined actual school segregation is fine, but efforts to remedy it are unconstitutional.
