I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.
Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.
Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.
If they ban whistles switch to cowbells. It'll be fun for all the Gen Xers.
Because we need more cowbell.
So many families in MN are opting to go online to stay safe.
I am not being snarky. I need my colleagues who wrote on covid school lockdowns to engage with this. To be as loud as they have been about prior "learning loss." Hell, you can cite Tom & Mark's AERJ paper so you feel better that there's some econ somewhere in your argument.
They are never, ever going to win in Minnesota.

Reporters, if you wrote about learning loss due to covid school closures, you can write about learning loss due to state terror.
in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today
Nekima Levy Armstrong and Chauntyll Allen, who were arrested and charged after a demonstration at a Minnesota church, have been released

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win.
Quote from a NYT opinion article “if Minnesota falls the country will fall”
I think this person is right.
I went to Minneapolis last week. What I saw was horrifying and inspiring in equal measure. Gift link to my latest column: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/o...

Dr. Gladys West, the pioneering mathematician whose work laid the foundation for modern GPS technology, has died. She was 95.
Respectfully, I am going to whisper to some of our white comrades a truth that should be more widely known: You definitely have some ancestors to be proud of, ancestors who refused white supremacy, and poured out their lives in many of these struggles over time.
Time to claim your true history.
A brief, worthwhile read this MLK weekend:
“The function of education, therefore, is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. But education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society.“

I really hope the back to school crowd from COVID is calling legislators and fighting for an end to ICE militarization. We are scrambling to provide an online option because of fear in Minnesota.
A federal judge in Minnesota issued an order stopping the Trump administration from cutting off funding for food stamps and other hunger-relief programs across the state. The ruling preserves critical assistance for families facing food insecurity. Thank you, Judge Laura M. Provinzino!
A family member reacts after a federal immigration officer used a battering ram to break down a door before making an arrest on January 11, 2026, in Minneapolis.

Wow! Yay! The Senate just rejected Trump’s proposed science cuts, voting 82–15 to boost funding for NOAA, NASA, and the NSF. The bill already passed the House 397–28. Strong bipartisan support for science still exists.
Graphic spells out acronym of "ICUCARE" and provides detail for each step.
"Students don’t come to us as blank slates."
That's why educator Pamela Seda developed her 7-part framework for validating Ss in math:

Math education is complex. It can’t be reduced to single studies or one-size-fits-all claims.
NCSM’s new position paper offers a balanced, equity-centered, research-informed alternative—one that honors the real nuance of teaching + learning.
