I tend to agree with you, Mike. I read the links and I did forward onto about a dozen people. I don't have social media accounts. I have often spoken and posted here about Katie Porter and her whiteboard. Quite frankly, although I admire the powerpoint from Alice, I agree with you that many of the "poorly educated" won't read it. It needs to be less scholarly, sadly, to attract the masses. And how important all the information contained in the power point is!!

Yes Miselle. Thomas Jefferson was always worried about an uneducated, poorly read population losing Democracy. Hence, his lifelong pursuit of good public education. Which did work for a while.

But. When whites had to go to school with blacks those white folks decided they would rather be ignorant and rolled out to private schools where, as we used to say, “they don’t learn Jack”.
