Hi I used to work at Starbucks customer service: if you call or email about this, they are absolutely tracking those numbers, and a sufficient amount of public pushback does make them rethink shit sometimes, so now would be an EXCELLENT time to let them know they’re being ableist shitheads

I mean, literally, the answer to this is "I am federally prohibited from telling you anything about my students without a subpoena or judicial warrant; if you have a subpoena or judicial warrant, please submit it to [Legal Officer/Office] to ensure it is in compliance with all relevant federal laws"
If you have students who are trans no you don’t. If you have students of color who may be affected by ICE no you don’t. If anyone asks you gender or racial the makeup of your class you don’t have to tell them.
Protect your class and protect your students by not complying in advance. They trust you.

If you’re worried about putting a post in a genre feed because it might not get as much traction as it would on BookSky, you can just add the 💙 after the 📚. Then the post goes into both the genre feed & BookSky. A horror book post with the

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
