My mom dropped out of high school in St Louis at 16 to help put food on the table with an alcoholic single mom. Moved on her own to California and got a job as an AT&T telephone operator. (RBI: her first manager was Rep. Maxine Waters).
Got her GED at 23.
She often worked nights because it paid a little more. My parents took shifts. She was pro-union and stood up.
My dad owned a gas station and got a degree at night. Moms pension still matters for them in their 1,100 sq ft house.
Now I get to hang with some of the most amazing people in the world .. including car company execs AND the folks I met on the @UAW picket lines in Detroit. Proud to know both. Many came from the same beginnings.
Respect to all working class folks everywhere. That’s where it starts.
Ring-wing, left-wing is, frankly, bullshit. Let’s be America-wing.
"Workers are fed up with being left behind and scraping to get by... unions are the great equalizer in that," says @UAW President @ShawnFainUAW.

I am becoming a huge fan of the @WaitUntil8th org and movement. They promote research, resources and more encouraging parents to wait until 8th grade for their children to have phones. check it out.

ATTN MY FRIENDS AND FOLLOWERS:
There are umm...800 million AI newsletters out there now. If you read any, can you recommend 2-3 that would be useful to middle and high school students, teachers and parents of teens? Hit me in the replies or DMs. #AI #AILiteracy

Missed this from last week.
The federal government just revised down much of the last 3 years worth of economic growth.
I.E. economy wasn't as strong as initial data suggested.
Revisions happen all the time, but not sure I've seen essentially 3 years get whacked at the same time.
Thoughts?

Journalism matters!
The new Trump indictment references a @LeadStoriesCom fact check I wrote about false claims of Georgia election fraud. Page 18, paragraph 23 notes Gabriel Sterling of the Ga Secretary of State’s staff tweeted my article.

So I think experimenting is good, and finding a way to build trust with the audience and set markers and indicators that show that the news content is trustworthy is very important.
