Pedagogical Criticality

This is just a place for me to rant & riff about things that mean little to anyone, but me. I don't have to use proper grammar & neither do you. Who speaks the "queen's English" in the US anyway? Say what you feel. Don't use the "N" word or any other racial slurs in the absence of critical thought. Keep the cussing to a minimum, and above all, "Trouble the Waters." Don't be afraid to make waves. Speak up! In the words of the immortal James Brown, "Don't start none, won't be none!" Start some!

I Believe

"I watched and listened to a child, a girl, who lives in a shack, walk to the front of the classroom, with dirty close cropped hair, and dirty, high-water pants, and they weren't Capri pants, and I distinctly remember the big hole in the elbow of her sweater... I watched her look into my eyes and listened to her tell me that she was going to be a doctor, and I believed her." ~ Frederick A Hanna
