KIPP & Oppressive Schooling: "We need to reassess the way we measure school quality, taking into account the way that schools treat their students. Charter networks that abuse the psyches of their BIPOC students should not be held up as 'high performing.'"

1. Supermarket prices are up 13% in the last year and profits are at record highs
There isn't much competition to keep prices in check
Now, the nation's largest supermarket chain (@Kroger@twitter.com) wants to buy the 2nd-largest (@Albertsons@twitter.com)
What could go wrong?

Women of color have to deal with pejorative stereotypes, including "docility & model minority myths for Asian women; the angry Black woman trope attached to Black women; & the oppressive, 'in need of rescuing' labels imposed on Muslim women."

"Universally, women, especially women of color, have experienced deep-rooted systemic challenges that have hindered our career success. The system imposes many barriers on us and should better support our advancement by design."
Engaging in deep curriculum design serves as a reminder of a few things for me
1) Curriculum design needs to take place with a team of dedicated improvement focused educators.
2) It takes a lot of time, planning, reflecting, testing, reflecting, and revising.
3) Curriculum is never perfect or quite 100% complete.
Feel very fortunate to have an incredible instructor team, wish we had more time.

Republicans are against being "woke"
But what does "woke" mean?
Ryan Newman, Ron DeSantis’ General Counsel, defined it in court last week.
Woke is "the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them," Newman says.
