What is the new non political blog that you started?

It’s not one that I’ll be sharing with people I don’t know.

Was chillin in the breakroom today talking politics with a coworker who knows my views pretty well. He was discussing how unjust the wars the US has been involved in in recent history have been, and I mentionined imperialism and said I had a book about it if he wanted to read it.

A few minutes later I realized a younger kid who works up front was listening to the conversation and I said, "sorry, I have a degree in political science and I talk about politics a lot".

He then told me he wanted to borrow the book I had mentioned.

HECK YESS!

Durham activists keep up the struggle

By LT Tran

Though charges still remain against the Durham freedom fighters, the movement has progressed by leaps and bounds in the past several weeks with anti-racist organizers putting up a tireless battle against the state and its racist sense of “justice.” The movement has won by its refusal to back down — whether it be to elected officials and sheriffs or to white supremacist vigilantes.

stats from the article:

Native students are disciplined at roughly two times the rate of their white peers. And though they represent approximately 1 percent of the student population, they account for 2 percent of all school arrests and 3 percent of all incidents referred by school staff to law enforcement.

Native students are less likely to graduate in four years than any other racial group; by the time they reach their senior year, only 10 percent are proficient in math.

In 1995, the federal government allocated $125 per Native student; last year, the allotment was just $63.80. Trump’s proposed budget would cut program spending even further, by 30 percent. 

Less than 1 percent of educators nationwide are American Indian or Alaska Native. 

87% of the references to American Indians in the various state academic standards, upon which textbooks are based, concern events that happened before 1900. Some Nebraska textbooks have described American Indians as lazy and drunk.

The budget proposed by Education Secretary Betsy DeVos would eliminate more than $4 billion from the programs that support Native kids. DeVos advocates a voucher system, which would provide students with public money to attend private schools. But to use these vouchers, most tribal students would have to travel more than 70 miles round-trip to get to and from school.
