Fun demo show for kids, adult kids enjoy too. Proceeds bring students from underserved schools. 240k+ served. TYC is our day job. Voice of David, not Frank. Trying to bring more AAPI content to this site.
This month's Physics Teacher has a piece on the Physics Show (doi.org/10.1119/5.02...)! It's great to see our model disseminated. @barnettdreyfuss.bsky.social tells her journey in the American Journal of Physics (doi.org/10.1119/5.03...). We came up in the same ecosystem, it was a joy to read.

Lol the Nobels can't even acknowledge women's contribution to discovery. But sure let's acknowledge The Machines.

We've put away our equipment and cleaned the stage. Over the past two weeks we've done physics outreach shows for 10k+ members of the public and roughly 2500 kids from Title 1 schools.

BREAKING: Coalition Sues to Protect the National Science Foundation from Trump and DOGE Assault

We’re suing on behalf of educators, researchers, professors, and graduate students to stop the latest effort by the Trump administration to weaponize federal funding to push their anti-equity agenda. 🧵

Very happy to see this. Fond memory of ud being sent to another room for too much talking during a new physics teachers workshop 20 years ago.

"Let's not take the soul-sucking path of sacrificing the most persecuted for that which we deem to be most popular. I know that there are transgender children right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am."

College Board deleted vids for multiple classes on AP Classroom about issues dealing with American Indians, Slavery, Racism, and sexism. For APUSH the first two videos on Slavery in the British Colonies were deleted, videos on Native American societies and Euro conquest, and Reconstruction. #edusky

It's the #DayOfRemembrance. Over the past month I have thought often of my grandparents' lessons. They taught to resist, even if the odds are overwhelmingly against you. Comply when needed, but only when needed. Nurture and protect your communities. They survived, and so will we.

You’re worried about tomato prices.

Wait till Trump’s Mexico tariffs raise your tomato prices.

This is where my family lived in World War II.
As Trump prepares to turn Guantanamo into a concentration camp, the front page for the Amache National Historical Site is down.

As if you could erase history by pretending a place doesn't exist. Stalin would blush.

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.
