“Move It or Lose It”: USDA Threatens Workers and the Rural Communities They Serve (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As a former federal employee, I regularly chat with friends about the topsy-turvy nature of the Trump Administration and the rapid changes occurring with federal workers. However, I wasn’t prepared for one of my friends to call and tell me that she received notice that she would be unemployed if she didn’t agree to move to Dallas next month. Chearice Vaughn has spent thirty years at the U.S. Department of Agriculture helping rural America get the financing it needs to grow. Now she must choose b
The Pedagogy of Being the Best (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every school day at Rufus King High School once began the same way. Over the intercom, in the hallways, before pep rallies and report cards, Principal Tom Balistreri delivered the same charge to his students: "You are the best; we expect you to do your best; and remember, you attend the BEST SCHOOL ANYWHERE." It sounds simple. Some might even call it a slogan. But those of us who have spent time in classrooms know that repetition is pedagogy. What a child hears every single day becomes what a ch

This year, that date fell on July 21. Let that sink in. Nearly seven full months into a new year, and Black women are only now breaking even with what our white male counterparts pocketed the year before. The numbers remain stubborn and shameful. Black women working full-time, year-round earn roughly 65 to
If You Vote for Us, We Are "Electable": A Closer Look at Blacks and Other Racial Minorities Elected to Statewide Office in the United States (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every election cycle, like clockwork, the conversation begins. Not about policy. Not about vision. Not about record. It begins with a question that has shadowed political candidates of color for generations: Can they win? The answer — hiding in plain sight, etched into the historical record of this nation — is an emphatic yes. According to the Smithsonian Museum of African American history, over 100 Black Americans have held statewide office across the United States, spanning roles from governor
