At the #MFOL rally in NYC. Sorry I couldn’t make it to the DC event this time. That was one of the more memorable days of my life. And spending the year with those kids—(and writing the book about them)—one of the most gratifying years of my life. (at Lower Manhattan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CerW0MJOOR7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

do you think mfol is in vain then?

not necessarily. lots of good change has come from their activism but from what ive seen its always just pressuring immediately after a shooting in that spec. city

i just think when ppl in charge of it, be it the founder on twitter himself, chapter leaders, or even rally leaders, say things like that. mm it's a little messy. from somebody who went from living in the most diverse part of my state 2 this white hell...idk bro.

gen z isn't a gigantic liberal group ready 2 fix the future, if that's ur blanket pov, then that's just who you've been living w 👍

The Most Vicious Cycle | Music Video from Ben Smith on Vimeo.

*** WARNING: Sensitive Content*** A film designed to inspire younger generations to get out and vote for representatives who advocate sensible gun control laws in the November ’18 midterms. Written by Kesha, Sage, Chika, Pebe Sebert, and Drew Pearson, the song was created as an artistic response to the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The film is a looping, metaphoric visualization of the predictable events that follow a mass shooting. Using the overly complicated and at times comical mechanics of a Rube Goldberg machine, the story takes place inside a school while a shooting is occurring. After every shooting, there’s outrage, prayers and false promises. Then it happens again. End #TheMostViciousCycle. Vote for candidates who support sensible gun laws and share the video. #VoteForOurLives on 11/6.

Day One Hundred

Today was a bit squirrely because everyone’s anticipating a snow day tomorrow (a real snow day, not a remote learning day, because the storm that’s coming will most likely knock out the power in large chunks of the district). We all got through it, though. 

I started my Block 1 class off with some time to read the books they chose for the book paper assignment. Then, by popular request, we played the vocab game we’d played on Friday, and did a bit more vocab practice with a little fill-in-the-blanks assignment I whipped up this morning. After that, I introduced the first major project of the semester- the Subculture Project- by going over the instructions and letting students look at a few finished examples. They had the remainder of class to choose a subculture to research and get started (any distinct group within a larger culture works, really, but I did give a list they could choose from because some students get overwhelmed by too much choice). They used the time so well, and I’m very pleased with the work I saw. 

I switched up the sequence in Block 2. I did vocab practice first, which went well, and then I introduced the project. That also went pretty well. I figured I’d save reading for the last twenty minutes of class because that’d put it after lunch, so there would be a natural break and transition. That did not work very well, and the more rowdy students in the class, who had mostly behaved up until that point, started getting disruptive. So I’ll do reading time first in the future. Lesson learned.

The last half hour of the day is supposed to be for advisory and flex time, but, due to the Covid-induced limitations on travel between classrooms, it’s really just a half hour study hall, and that’s a real struggle. Few students use it well, and several of mine keep trying to do inappropriate things (throwing stuff at each other, making dirty jokes, whatever...). It was frustrating today because I was trying to videoconference with the MfoL kids, but I couldn’t really juggle that with minding my classroom. I had to get up and talk to students individually to get them to settle down, and it took two tries in most cases, and I kind of think they’re just trying to see if I’ll lose my composure, at this point. Unfortunately, they’re used to teachers yelling at them when they misbehave, but I almost never yell, so... It’ll be interesting to see how long it takes them to realize it’s not going to happen. 

Anyways. 

I had track practice after that, and it was great fun. We didn’t practice last week because The Head Coach had to take care of some family stuff (everything’s all right, though), so it was good to be back with the team. They did some timed sprints and jumping drills, and in between the handful who are also in APUSGOV chatted with me about Congress. We’re going to have a busy class come Monday, I think!
