Black Male Teachers Should be the Norm, Not the Exception
cmaadmin, Diverse - 11 hours ago
Our education system, as we know it, is systematically racist. How did we get here? We haven’t been thinking about what is best for kids. Kids perform better in school when they are with teachers of the same race or ethnicity. There are approximately 8 million (15%) Black students in America’s public schools, yet only 7% of teachers are Black. By not providing enough teachers of color for our students we are exacerbating a form of racism in the field; we don’t take that seriously enough.

A number of indicators certainly pointed in that direction. Signing the agree...

*Stephen Silver* *Stimulus Check, * [image: Stimulus Check Gambling] According to Forbes, casinos in the state of Nevada raked in $1 billion in the month of March, its biggest month in eight years. Ever since Americans began receiving their stimulus checks from the American Rescue Plan, they’ve spent a lot of that money- enough to cause retail sales to surge in March, and the gross national product to rise significantly in the first quarter. Surveys have shown that more Americans are spending their stimulus money on household bills than anything else, but there are indications t...

Robert Farley, The National Interest - 13 hours ago

No Tax Refund Yet from the IRS? Here Is What You Need To Do.
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 13 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Tax Refund, * Here's how to ensure that you receive the money you rightfully earned. A tax refund isn’t really extra money – even if a lot of people treat it that way. Rather it is an “overpayment,” meaning you paid ahead and now are getting it back. For many, waiting for the refund can be frustrating, but this year with the rising costs of everything from groceries to gasoline, that refund can be a lifeline. As of April 16, the Internal Revenue Series (IRS) has received more than 110 million tax returns and has already issued $210 billion in refunds. However, th...
Countering China’s Global Great Game
Michael Sobolik, The National Interest - 13 hours ago
*Michael Sobolik* *China, Asia* Washington’s instinctual response to compete with the Belt and Road Initiative dollar-for-dollar is a losing proposition that plays into China’s long game. But with an offensive framework, American policymakers could turn the tables and transform the BRI into an albatross for the Communist Party. THE RELATIONSHIP between the United States and the People’s Republic of China (PRC) changed more in 2020 than in the past forty years. Cooperation and “win-win outcomes” rapidly devolved into confrontation and “wolf warrior diplomacy.” Preexisting dispute...

Foreign interference in Myanmar
Bruce K. Gagnon, Organizing Notes - 14 hours ago
The Western media is trying to convince global audiences that organic, self-organized protests are rising up against Myanmar’s central government. However, evidence reveals that ongoing protests as well as armed ethnic insurgencies are the work of US and British interference - including the funding, arming, and training of armed militants. This is evidence taken not from Myanmar’s central government - but from US-backed groups themselves and media networks the US has funded for years.
