Teachers, please DO NOT follow up ‘I know I don’t get paid enough’ with:

•‘But I love my job.’

•’But the district doesn’t have the money, times are tough!’

•’But I do it for the kids.’

You’re allowed to love your job, the kids AND be paid FAIRLY...AND the money is there.

Turns out, he was in a sickle cell crisis.

I intend to take that seat back and give voters their voice in Raleigh.

I am forever grateful for my @mit experiences. I went to the @mitcoop to pick up some swag and was pleasantly surprised to see my book on display. I’ve gotten used to walking into many book stores and learning they don’t carry Unmasking AI, or if they do it is tucked away
