Just reminding you that you don’t have to go to holiday things if you don’t want to! You might not want to see someone who is there, THERE’S STILL A PANDEMIC HAPPENING, you’re tired, or you just wanna stay home. It’s okay!

I've been going off on picture books recently... there's so much to discuss! Here's my latest blog where I break down where we were and progress the industry has made. #DisruptTexts WARNING: racist images multiculturalclassroom.com/blog/racist_pi…

also acquiring books by black authors for lots of money but then not pushing them the way you push white books is :) racist :) and fucked up :) and doesn't count as diversifying lol

2 years ago I did a series of interviews on non-library jobs for LIS (library and information science) workers, including librarians Check them ALL out if you need ideas on often better paying careers outside #LibraryJobs ie: #LISJobs inalj.com/?cat=6946

Fall is upon us. Unfortunately, in addition to pumpkins, changing leaves, and sweaters, fall also brings the trifecta of holidays that appropriate, misrepresent, and spread lies about Indigenous peoples and our histories: Columbus Day, Halloween, and Thanksgiving. 🧵:

Dropping Covid mitigation measures has other illnesses popping right on back/up. Please keep washing your hands, staying home (if you can) and masking!

Super important thread on the (in)credibility of the “learning loss” narrative… TLDR: lacks evidence and test comparisons show no significant difference

It’s not a teacher shortage problem. It’s a you disrespected, underpaid & demonized teachers so they resigned from the profession problem.

Banning books does not protect children. It punishes those who are “different”, silences the abused, and erases those who aren’t white. That’s what the current push is about: punishment, power, and control. #FReadom

I'm not saying it's right. I'm not saying it's fair. It's not. The government has completely abandoned their public health response That doesn't mean we have to abandon each other, too

"Learning to live with COVID" is absolutely necessary but 99% of leaders who use this phrase use it to mean "do what we used to do with as little change as possible" when it needs to mean "adjusting social, health, labor, and economic policy at a fundamental/structural level"

That's right! The next move is they don't want openly queer PEOPLE working in libraries. It's not about the books! It's never been about the books!

And please pay attention to this part. The fascists didn't just object to LGBTQ *books* in the library: "Some residents have accused the library and its previous directors of having a “liberal agenda” due to its hiring of openly LGBTQ staff members."
