    Truth is: if teaching was a male dominated field, we wouldn’t see this. We still think that women who teach are (1) waiting to get married or (2) making the family’s second income (fun money). Teachers are highly educated professionals—pay them!!

    My son’s cross country meet was cancelled in ME bc temps will be high 80’s tomorrow…farm workers keep working with no breaks in much higher temps…they need worker protections
    Andrea - currently a student at UCLA - and her mother Simona both work the fields of CA’s Central Valley. In this video, they share from experience the dangers farm workers face in the fields during extreme heat. #CALOR #WeFeedYou

    My seniors were angry; they told me, “this is such a fitting end to my college experience; it started with Trump winning and is ending with a global pandemic.” I didn’t have an answer, but I did say, “I’m so sorry”

    Haha...I can’t even with this. I was a grad student for 7 years living in 900 sq feet with 3 kids. Now I’m a prof with a real sized house, but haven’t upgraded furniture😂 plus, we’re tiny humans

    So, I'm supposed to give a farewell talk to graduating seniors who've been activists on campus. The theme of the talk is "Activism Post-Graduation." Here's what I got so far: "Fuck if I know...we're all Fucked!" What am I missing?
