Not sure how classroom-safe this resource is, but it's interesting to think about using it to teach about meaning and idioms.

Once again, I am asking you to check out this amazing obituary, as I do every year on Si Moore Day. May your life be as interesting!
Take a few minutes to read this glorious account of a life fully lived. Then maybe your household, like ours, will begin to commemorate Si Moore Day every October 19th.

Good stuff from @jaketapper for history teachers thinking about adding some context to their election lessons this year. #sschat

This is a brilliant take on the Florida standards. Oppression without oppressors. Terrible.
There's been much gaslighting & moderate justifying of the new Florida social studies standards, people stating the "clarifications" were designed to show Black resilience, or were just "facts." So, I thought I'd compare the African-American history standards to the Holocaust's.
