When I was in 4th grade, my favorite teacher left teaching to go into nursing; we became pen pals for a few years afterwards and have reconnected on FB. Now I’m taking a break from teaching to become a student and my favorite student and I exchange emails.

Wisconsin school board rejected book about Japanese American internment. They “felt that we needed the perspective of the American government and why Japanese internment happened.”

Fitchburg Family Pharmacy posted on Facebook that in response to the overturning of Roe v. Wade they have stocked Plan B, emergency contraception, are selling it at cost and are also "happy to provide these to our community members even if they cannot pay."
This summer, my second hiatus comes to an end. I’m starting my new journey as edu consultant with @CurriculumAssoc. I spent this last week with an amazing team of educators at PD Academy and am so excited for what’s to come in the next few months.

Some US Muslims, especially in positions of leadership, have openly embraced the Evangelical Right’s positions on a few social issues - such as abortion. Islamic laws around abortion aren’t “pro-choice” (per what it means in this country) but they aren’t “pro-life” either.

Forced birth in a country that doesn’t have mandatory maternity leave or universal healthcare…
“…many critics have taken to social media to condemn the draft opinion as “Christian sharia.” Using sharia as shorthand for religiously oppressive laws is not only Islamophobic, it’s flat-out wrong — including when it comes to abortion.” sfchronicle.com/opinion/open…

Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine does not contain fetal cells, as social media posts have falsely claimed. The erroneous claim distorts the facts of how the vaccine, like many other medications, was tested. Get the facts from @AP. apne.ws/zTFss0D

If you’re comparing the Texas abortion laws to ✨Sharia Law✨ enjoy this thread from when this same talking point came up when ACB was appointed to SCOTUS.
Using anything Islam & Muslim as a rhetorical measure of “bad” or “barbaric” is actually pretty bigoted.

The US is doing extremely well with its vaccination campaign, but there are some 30 million, mostly working class people who want the vaccine but can't access it for various reasons. A huge factor? Getting time off to deal with side effects.
