nothing against the student, but against the idea

2019-01-07 05:01:58 UTC  

I never attack the individual, just the ideas

2019-01-07 05:02:02 UTC  

Too many kids and adults just regurgitate to fit in

2019-01-07 05:02:06 UTC  

they like me, the students

2019-01-07 05:02:18 UTC  

Is that what you think or do they tell you

2019-01-07 05:02:40 UTC  

I wanted to be a teacher before I landed in journalism

2019-01-07 05:02:45 UTC  

I force them to look at how things are

2019-01-07 05:03:05 UTC  

I didn't want to be a teacher, I wanted to get into public relations

2019-01-07 05:03:08 UTC  

in politics

2019-01-07 05:03:11 UTC  

Odd

2019-01-07 05:03:17 UTC  

but landed a teaching job

2019-01-07 05:03:22 UTC  

I heard journalists tend to become PR

2019-01-07 05:03:33 UTC  

well I am a Communication major with a History minor

2019-01-07 05:03:38 UTC  

I see

2019-01-07 05:03:56 UTC  

I'm a philosophy major but I ended up loving journalism

2019-01-07 05:03:56 UTC  

As a teacher how does the district make you handle the old cusual racism from materials pre-1930s?

2019-01-07 05:04:00 UTC  

but its hard for a 40 yr old vet to get started in such things

2019-01-07 05:04:20 UTC  

we don't use material from the 1930's lol

2019-01-07 05:04:34 UTC  

the books I use are less than 2 years old

2019-01-07 05:04:57 UTC  

although I do pull out some old books to show the students how things were interpretedearlier

2019-01-07 05:05:02 UTC  

And they don't cover history?

2019-01-07 05:05:16 UTC  

well we talk about everything

2019-01-07 05:05:19 UTC  

New books, new perspectives

2019-01-07 05:05:19 UTC  

slavery

2019-01-07 05:05:24 UTC  

and such

2019-01-07 05:05:33 UTC  

I just tell them to suck it the fuck up

2019-01-07 05:05:40 UTC  

not in so many words of course

2019-01-07 05:05:42 UTC  

I see so

2019-01-07 05:05:52 UTC  

You're creating the conservative gen Z I heard about

2019-01-07 05:06:06 UTC  

That's interesting

2019-01-07 05:06:06 UTC  

I teach mostly illegal immiggrants

2019-01-07 05:06:12 UTC  

I'm not creating them

2019-01-07 05:06:16 UTC  

So you live in the south

2019-01-07 05:06:19 UTC  

I do not impose my beliefs at all

2019-01-07 05:06:23 UTC  

I would be curious to see the look on kids faces when watching the orginal KIng Kong

2019-01-07 05:06:24 UTC  

I live in OK

2019-01-07 05:06:28 UTC  

Ah nvm

2019-01-07 05:06:31 UTC  

Damn

2019-01-07 05:06:51 UTC  

I give them the resources and then probe them for their ideas on it

2019-01-07 05:06:52 UTC  

@Khanclansith was king Kong racist?

2019-01-07 05:07:05 UTC  

the original could be seen that way
