BREAKING: Nashville's Republican Rep. Andy Ogles disgustingly announces that he doesn't "regret" the insane family portrait he took in 2021 with his children holding guns despite the tragic Nashville school shooting — instead he wants o pin the blame on "mental health issues" while ignoring the fact that the shooter used an AR-15 like so many others have before.

Barack and I believe that everyone has a story worth telling—and Descendant is a story that demands to be told. This film chronicles when the last known ship from Africa, the Clotilda, arrived with enslaved Africans to the United States. I hope you'll watch Descendant on Netflix.

"Grades should represent an honest report of evidence at this moment in time, nothing more. If we make them something more than that, we undermine the student’s maturation and any useful purpose for grading."
