As an educator I totally agree my class is not called Language Arts its called Life Arts where you learn to read, think, and utilize the language to Open New Doors, eliminating excuses. Keep reading

@@sonyahathaway51293years later, have you fully imbibed the marxist culture of the American educational system? Are you fully indoctrinated? Has your school gone all-in on the radical trans ideology, gender identity and racial politics? Have all the social dilemmas been incorporated into all areas of your curriculum? Do you see the resultant stress and anxiety in the faces of your students-and in the silent complaints of your fellow teachers? How much of your instructional time, PD time and preparation time is free of incorporating the myriad social agendas? Don’t go along to get along. Speak out on the bullsh*t before you lose your soul, be one nothing more than a sellout, and cause immeasurable harm to the children whom you entered the profession to help.

I don't know; it seems that being educated in this European education system has become a curse to us as African-Americans, for some reason the more education we get the less we want to be around our kind there is no reason in theworld, that with the enormous amount of education and economics sucess we have achieved that we are still looking, hoping, and waiting for someone to do for us when we can definitely get it done for ourselves, is it the systemthats letting us down or are we letting our selves down? .

This is racialist nonsense. I'd like to see TEDx sponsor a talk by a white teacher making a compelling case for how the white experience in the classroom could have remarkable impact. None of my teachers shared my culture and that mattered not one bit. I was a child, a student whose only job was to learn. By the way, TEDx, the word is not "impact". To impact is to collide; it has a negative denotation. Better words would be "influence" or "inspire".
