Wisdom from the great American sculptor Richard Serra, who died this week:
If the Powers That Be decided to start making kids memorize the dictionary - in the name of "rigor," "college readiness," and a "content-rich curriculum" - we'd start to see workshops & apps called “Best Practices for Implementing the New Competency-Based Dictionary Assessments.”

From sociologist Robert Bellah et al., a timely observation (but a tough sell in a society that overvalues self-sufficiency): "Education can never merely be for the sake of individual self-enhancement. It pulls us into the common world or it fails altogether."

The extent of disinformation in this carefully crafted video is severe, but unsurprising. Ignorance & ideology consistently guide UCP policy. That’s why DS broadcast this msg via SM, rather than a formal media scrum where journalists could question & challenge her. 1/🧵 #AbLeg
Gender identity can be a hard thing to talk about, especially when you are involved. But this conversation is extremely important and parental involvement is critical. Kids need to know we love and support them. My message to all Albertans:
Vulnerable children in Alberta are under attack today. Their government is stripping their rights and safety. I hope that every terrified child knows that there are many of us adults who will stand by them and who will fight for every single one of them. You’re not alone. #ableg
Woke up. Proofed my dough. Rode my bike. Baked bread. Watched my province strip basic human rights from marginalized children. This is criminal.
