One of our History majors found these in our archive: photos taken 54 years ago this month of national student strike protests at the University of Baltimore against the Vietnam war and the killing of four Kent State students by National Guardsmen.

An argument straight out of Reconstruction. In the real world, economists estimate that in US, $50 trillion moved from bottom 90% to top 1% between 1981-2021.

IT IS HERE! TODAY IS THE DAY!
I wrote this to continue conversations that my daughter started with me when she was 3 years old. I wrote this to honor the hard conversations I had with AsianAms (across political spectrum) about race, racism, and affirmative action.

NC Lt. Governor Mark Robinson is a voting member of the State Board of Education and the GOP’s candidate to be our next governor.

He wants North Carolina’s elementary schools to stop teaching science and history to children.

This is the modern Republican Party. #nced #ncpol

The History God's are trying to turn me into a military afficionado. It all started with Matthew Delmont's book. Oh, well next project on deck! Zinn Ed Project America 250 NC #RaceToTheDan #FreedomInAllForms #GriggsvsDukePower50

Just finished reading FAME by Justine Bateman - such a fascinating read for anyone who has observed fame, experienced fame (on the way up to the dizzying heights and especially on the way down into the abyss) - or wondered how to control it.

Liberty Christian School in Durham, NC got nearly $1m in public voucher funding this year.

This school reserves the right to expel students who listen to 'inappropriate' music at home. 

The public should not be funding institutions with these control issues. #ncpol #nced
