Welcome back to #freedom, @vkaramurza!
This news is a tremendous relief to all those who know and love him - none more than his wife and fellow activist @ekaramurza and their three children.

Boris Nemtsov would have turned 64 today.
Scientist, statesman, citizen, patriot — in the truest sense of this word. The best president Russia never had.
We will always remember.

"Kids learn how to make good decisions by making decisions, not by following directions."
This was a great keynote from Alfie Kohn - worth catching up on if you missed it. Lots of ideas on how to promote student agency and why it's so important. @toddle_edu #ToddleTIES

Educators have a variety of perspectives, and it's important to be able to disagree without being disagreeable and welcome diverse views. Perspectives that are "rooted in oppression and denial of [ones'] humanity and right to exist"are existential threats and must be challenged.

Terrible decision by Eurosport to leave Osaka-Anisimova at 5-5 in the third. Fine, they've got skiing to go to - but on the other channel, they're showing the start of Rafa instead. Just show the women. Mental

Financed and approved by the state, history textbooks are less a reflection of the current state of historical knowledge than a collection of stories adults think will do children good, the educational equivalent of making the kids eat their peas. kappanonline.org/history-tex…
