This one is called "Stop Repeating History: Finding Solutions for Fall 2020 #Pandemic Schooling that are Rooted in Partnership and Humanity" (Note: It is not sexy).

To know how to move forward, first, we have to look back. Here, we look back to the inception of public education in the United States, and how it has always been situated in capitalistic enterprise for better, and mostly, for worse.

(thread) I'm paying homage to the genre of @mochamomma 's teaching style twitter.

Welcome to my classroom, i.e. How Educational Presses are Messing Up Hard Core, and

i.e. What We Critically Minded People can do to SUBVERT this Trump-era journalism. (&also thank you @jthompedu for bringing this to my attention)

@EdWeekTeacher , you have 271.6K twitter followers. Your reach is deep, it is entrenched, and lots of the US teaching force listens to what you have to say.

You are lucky that @Jess5th was quoted in this article.
