i’ve noticed your passion for teaching and learning history with teenagers. kids want to know the real stories, and they want to understand from multiple points of view. when a high school social studies teacher in a facilitates a discussion of a significant event in history, students are gonna need more than official accounts shrouded in faith-promoting narratives that explain nothing. this is where you shine. it’s immediately apparent to anyone who is paying attention. i believe your grandmother is very proud of you. i’m a total fucking stranger, and i’m proud of you.

Number 46 has been out for 24 hours and I remain the only commenter. Outside that fact that 60% of Trump supporters either find Kristi Noem killing her dog acceptable or no opinion is 60%, I want to know have you have ever heard of YouTube personality Matt Beat (real name)? he is a former APUSH teacher based in Kansas (west of Kansas City) who runs the YouTube channel Mr. Beat which has several videos about US History of all eras with a left of center slant. Maybe you and him should collaborate or at least have a conversation. PS he IS married with children so it's not THAT kind of fixup.

"especially using it as a means to understand current events by putting them into historical context" You may be one of the best teachers in the country at teaching about this. Keep up the good work.

Shoot Sari Beth I paid my $8 to subscribe and it took a while for you to write a substack. By far the most important article for your readers to read is the one in the middle. The most underreported part of said article is Trump's saying that Netanyahu allowed Oct 7 to happen. Which should prove to Netanyahu that while Biden is not his cup of tea Trump is unstable. But will it? And I am trying to convince Tara Strong (who is ten times the influencer you are) to more publicly support Biden. Including a recent article that says Kristti the Dog Killer still has Trump's support (but he would not pick her for VP...or would he?) Many Trump supporters are coming out against Netanyahu. And no my personal opposition to Netanyahu does not mean I am against the Israeli people or anti Semitic at all.
