Texas teens defend Colleyville principal James Whitfield on critical race theory accusations – Washington Post
They were defending James Whitfield, the first Black principal ever to lead Colleyville Heritage High. His treatment by White district officials was the reason the teens had walked out of class. It was why they would stay outside for five hours in 93-degree heat that Thursday. It was why they would leave class again the next day to spend another five hours marching around campus chanting, “No more silence! No more lies! We will not be victimized!”

Whitfield’s job was in danger. Over the summer, White adults had accused the principal of embracing critical race theory, a decades-old academic framework that argues racism in America is systemic. Critical race theory has become a target for conservatives around the country. Texas passed two controversial laws this year meant to ban any mention of it from public school classrooms.
Danish Pumpkin Spice
What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? The Food Whisperer: Danish Pumpkin Spice! The mere mention of pumpkin spice sends people into a tizzy.

U.S. Covid Deaths Get Even Redder – The New York Times
In October, 25 out of every 100,000 residents of heavily Trump counties died from Covid, more than three times higher than the rate in heavily Biden counties (7.8 per 100,000). October was the fifth consecutive month that the percentage gap between the death rates in Trump counties and Biden counties widened.


Some conservative writers have tried to claim that the gap may stem from regional differences in weather or age, but those arguments fall apart under scrutiny. (If weather or age were a major reason, the pattern would have begun to appear last year.) The true explanation is straightforward: The vaccines are remarkably effective at preventing severe Covid, and almost 40 percent of Republican adults remain unvaccinated, compared with about 10 percent of Democratic adults.
COP-26: ¡Los derechos a la tierra de los indígenas deben ser respetados ahora para ayudar a mitigar el cambio climático!

«Los pueblos indígenas están a la vanguardia de la emergencia climática y nosotros debemos estar en el centro de las decisiones que se toman aquí. Tenemos ideas para retrasar el fin del mundo. »
- Txai Suruí, 24, activista indígena brasileña
Txai Suruí agregó que los calendarios anunciados en la mesa de negociaciones de la COP-26 por funcionarios del gobierno para reducir las emisiones de carbono y recortar el uso de combustibles fósiles eran tremendamente inadecuados.
«Vamos a frenar la emisión de promesas falsas e irresponsables, acabaremos con la contaminación de las promesas vacías y lucharemos por un futuro y un presente vivibles.
No es 2030 o 2050», dijo,«es ahora. »

La selva amazónica es la selva tropical más grande de la Tierra y es esencial para regular el clima del mundo.
