‘Proactively fall in line:’ Holocaust Memorial Museum quietly changed content after Trump returned to office

Two former employees said they believed the museum was altering its content preemptively to avoid unwanted negative attention from the Trump administration.

The world's a dumpster fire but I am still interested in how we think/talk about school integration and educational justice. Luckily, @ericaoturner.bsky.social did a brilliant job leading the work for a new ER piece. We hope it's useful to others who are figuring this out. doi.org/10.3102/0013...

Screenshot of an article abstract from Educational Researcher: "Brown v. Board of Education has played a central role in imagining educational justice in the United States. However, the lessons that we should draw from school desegregation is contested terrain, and desegregation efforts have largely failed both to grapple with the country’s multiracial constituency and to offer a positive vision for schools. In this essay, we use theoretical conceptualizations of justice, relational theories of race, and research literature to offer a more robust vision of public schooling for a multiracial democracy. This multidimensional, situated, and relational framework is one powerful tool for those designing research, policies, and practices that help us move toward multiracial democracy.

New study with @bcmurray.bsky.social shows effect of school race on parents perceptions of multiple dimensions of safety. White parents rate Black, Latine, & Asian schools as socioemotionally unsafe, Black & Latine schools as violent & disorderly, Black schools as biologically unsafe. 1/2

🚸 “Safety” isn’t race-neutral. In this #Socius study, Drs. @chantalahailey.bsky.social & @bcmurray.bsky.social show how White parents interpret school #safety through racialized lenses—fueling #RacialBias and #schoolsegregation in #education. Read: doi.org/10.1177/2378...

Because Black people know that there is no such thing as “identification” or “identifying yourself”. They aren’t saying Padilla didn’t identify himself as a U.S. Senator. They are saying that there is only one acceptable identity — credential — being white and, in these times, being pro-Trump.
