#edu307 we will replace @jacobmcjacob with: https://ncte.org/blog/2019/05/affirming-black-queer-youth/ I will make the change on both my personal website and on Blackboard....Can't wait for this weeks discussion, remember to listen, and provide a CW if discussing triggering issues
Hey #edu307 Here is a video on how to do your book club readings: https://jgregorymcverry/videos/EDU307GroupUpdate.mp4 remember you pick two books, but your group prolly only needs one copy.
If you can do one thing for Open Education Week #OEweek start up your personal website again. Be your own repository, do not rely on big open vaporware or tools that will fade, open begins with you. It is about an #ethos not just #stuff
@readywriting I think your smart polisci partner is wrong. Bloomberg gonna dump his organizing, and more importantly digital campaign team into the Biden campaign and keep his promise of spending every dollar he has to to defeat Trump
@holden I think that is the American political definition of "pipe dream" Yes younger open to more political progressive politics and did not grow up in bicameral vitriol of Cold War, but only so many rich college kids to go around.
So Sanders wins the Birkenstock Beltway, big deal., and not by huge delegate margins. Biden won, and will win everything else, especially if Warren stays in and splits progressive vote. This primary is over.
And #edu307 I noticed that @jacobmcjacob's post on the need to queer our education does not work. Looks like he took one of my fav blogs eva down. I am going to find a suitable replacement text.
And if the margins and turn out in historically marginalized community hold across the South, (HRC got nowhere near these numbers) plus I forsee an Abrams as VP choice, there will be little to stop a Biden victory...well besides Biden and an opening of his mouth
Well on the 58th-59th day my #100daychallenge of sharing a #quote from a scholar of color comes to an end. Clashed with goal of living healthy March after I crashed at 9:00 after a workout and then Cub Scout Committee meeting.
@jennfrey Part of me though has been questioning whether argumentation as the highest form of discourse is one of many Original sins of Western Civ...Like what if our entire schooling was built on idea that "reflection" and "listening: mattered mroe
Call "student loan forgiveness" "middle class tax stimulus" and allow negative return rates, but you can't call it "money for nothing" not in the US, not yet. People hear free and next three words they say is "Nothing is free"
@petrock You do not need to click on the link. That is just a link back to my personal website. I would rather own my notes on my own domain and tweet a POSSE copy rather than giving the data solely to Twitter.
I live in a state where my Primary vote is meaningless. The field is set before Connecticut votes and our state will go blue no matter what I do. I am more excited about turn out and state house elections. Way more important than Prez 2020
@petrock thx for feedback on the UX of people who might be Twitter users and unfamiliar with our workflow. I will take your feedback serious to see if I can add some clues to my design to reduce the inferentces required by readers
Just reread tweet, @jennfrey, apologies for misconstruing reasoning, clear in your initial message, Hopefully a listserv has a code of conduct for these situation, you know likef4-5 people will accidentally reply all with their disdain
I know you huge Warren supporter @saragoldrickrab so I know today a bit rough, but I think her campaign illustrates that in land of "not poor but failed billionaires" word free will never play. We need to call it something besides free college
@petrock Sanders way out spent Biden $ not close. Biden did not spend in Mass and TX really, and won them both. The lesson for Bernie Sanders: majority of people do not want to nominate a socialist to be a candidate of the Democratic Party
Biden was never my first choice. I liked Harris (ran bad campaign) and Klobuchar, until her law and order fight crime made her untenable with marginalized communities. Dig Warren's policy but she added no electoral map advantage. Biden win = good
@holdencould never call turnout numbers like that bad night....Massive energy. Biden is flawed, not my choice but Biden will deliver PA, don't need much more than to defeat Trump. All that matters. Warren is done but at least she took out Bloomberg
