Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

I don’t know, ICE taking babies off the street and imprisoning them seems like a kitchen table issue.

Pro tip: If you are attending a rally or action, wear a N95 mask & bring extras to give to others.
High quality masks can serve triple-duty: they prevent you and others from getting sick from airborne viruses, they keep your face warm in the freezing cold, & they can protect against surveillance.

What sort of nation terrorizes children and calls it enforcement? That demands loyalty while offering nothing but fear? My students already know the answer. They learned it the moment they started carrying passports in their pockets.
Black students in public schools have lived this reality forever.

The only time I disrupted a church service, I stood up, looked the visiting pastor in the eye, and walked out as he spouted bigotry cloaked as theology.
I was 16, my heart raced in my ears, and I knew I’d embarrass my mom. But, if Jesus was overthrowing tables, I could walk out in silent protest.

My mom (rhetorically) asked my toddler, “do you want me to spank your booty?”
On behalf of her sibling, my daughter (almost 8) looked at my mom, her Yaya, and said,
“No! This is not the 1990s!”

A student & I had a class period full of friction today. He came after school & we worked it out. Before he left, I thanked him for teaching me how take responsibility and own my mistakes with grace. He lit all the way up and asked,

And the land that was bought as part of the Louisiana Purchase (a vast area covering several states) was part of New Spain (1762-1801) after the French gave it to settle a debt and keep it from the British. They then sold it to U.S.

I need compelling persuasive/argumentative NONFICTION texts my students can read and study in ordered to better understand the genre. Preferably no more than 10 pages and about issues that are current.

Speaking truth to power in your classroom, especially in places that want silence and compliance, is activism. Telling the truth in a room full of students is THE WORK. Refusing to back down and refusing to lie in your curricular decisions is protest. +
