ONE (1) Happening Soon, Noon鈥1 p.m.! Dia De Los Muertos celebration.
I鈥檓 heading to the BIPOC Center soon to enjoy the food and music that will accompany an enlightening conversation on the cultural significance of D铆a de los Muertos with Laurie Scolari, Jerry Robredo, and Hilda Fernandez. Altars to honor our loved ones may be built.
TWO (2) Election Decompression Resources.
A news story I just read described recent campaign rhetoric as 鈥渦nbridled.鈥 Honestly, that seems too tame a word for the fear-filled, wildly insulting and, often, objectively racist discourse punctuating the week of final voting. If we are feeling it, our students are also鈥損erhaps more deeply. Please share with your students the following resource:
