As a public high school global studies teacher in NY I see this shrinking world view in almost every American born student. The majority of our youth are myopic. They are well educated about US and NY history. Yet they are absolutely unaware of the rest of world. Fortunately our district has a diverse population with m...

Let's remember that for most teachers, the spring was not remote teaching and learning but instead was quickly (I had a weekend) figuring out how to continue the school year via the Internet. I'd imagine for most teachers that, if we had to go to remote teaching in the fall, things will look quite different.

The Post is complicit as well. They need to have a headline that reads, "Trump Lies to the American People" and an article (NOT an opinion piece) that explain how his LIES have damaged and killed human beings, and has ruined our economy. Hold him accountable Washington Post and state the obvious truth in bold headlin...

@Eric I agree with you but will go one beyond. <PERSON> doesn't deserve Press Conferences about this pandemic. The press should NOT cover and "report" on his LIES! the press should be interviewing and having press conferences with competent individuals and reporting in the FACTS. Continuing to give voice to <PERSO...

Well Said Mr. <PERSON>. And even within the choice narrative there is further nuance. People make choices of the options they see available to them. By limiting their choices, we force them into an untenable situation. Suicide, witting or unwitting, is the response of those who have run out of choices and see no hop...

I think that there is a point that is overlooked here. It is not merely a point of education vs its lack. Those of us who are fairly well educated have more time at their disposal to think things through as opposed to someone who is struggling to make ends meet. Those who are struggling of necessity need quick answers...
