The thing is, I agree that the government needs an audit BUT I don't agree that some billionaire that's wasn't born here should be doing it. How could he possibly know what's needed for the every day American?

Great read for traveling on these long flights! But just in time for the #AHA25 NYC should be a good time.

@jefffleischer.bsky.social just finished "Civic Minded" GREAT READ! I also appreciated certain verbiage and language you used when speaking about immigration/DACA, etc. Thanks for your phenomenal work!

I found the first ever anti-racism book written for children. This was published in 1846 by Hannah and Mary Townsend, 2 Quaker sisters. How cool is this! #historians #skystorians #edusky

On Christmas Eve 1855 enslaved teenagers from Loudon County, Virginia fended off slave patrollers as they made their escape to freedom in Philadelphia. This image, “A Bold Stroke for Freedom,” is housed in the Library of Congress.

Only 7% of public school teachers are Black/African American. There has been barely any effective efforts to change this statistic. I hope that 2025 can change those numbers. I hope that admins can see the importance and quality that diverse teachers can bring to the table. #edusky
