Contrary to popular belief, “in loco parentis” actually translates to “your parents are crazy.”

Fifteen years ago, when I started teaching social media issues and social media literacies to college students, I realized quickly that the institution was not going to change from the top down, so I started looking for and supporting educators who were experimenting under the radar. I conducted more than 100 video interviews, accompanied by text blog posts of innovators using digital media for #learning #edutech #education

A group of #Republican members of the US House of Representatives file a motion to expel national embarrassment George Santos from Congress "He has no business being in the halls of the House of Representatives. He's an immoral person, he's an untrustworthy person, he's scammed hundreds of thousands of voters," one NY Rep said. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/new-york-republicans-move-oust-george-santos-us-house-2023-10-11/

The main PR achievement of the Roman Catholic Church probably was to take the story "Roman occupiers killed a Jew" and sell it as "Jews killed the son of our God".

That story has shaped the relation of Christians and Jews since the middle ages.

From the limited research that I'm able to handle doing at this point, I gather that BLM Chicago meant exactly what they said in their abhorrent, now-deleted tweet. But also that BLM is a large and decentralized movement, and we absolutely cannot infer that the movement as a whole endorses murdering Jews.

It's also very clear now that we in the US live among far more people than we realized who think that burning Jewish children to death is a good and virtuous thing to do.
