Missouri Governor’s Office Responsible For Teacher Data Leak – Slashdot
“They failed to follow basic security procedures for years, failed to protect teachers’ Social Security numbers, and failed to take responsibility, instead choosing to instigate a baseless investigation into two Missourians who did the right thing and reported the problem,” Gross told The Post-Dispatch. “We thank the Missouri State Highway Patrol and the Cole County Prosecutor’s Office for their diligent work on a case that never should have been sent to them.” Source: Missouri Governor’s Office Responsible For Teacher Data Leak – Slashdot
Bans, Schools, & Power: False Majorities
How do small and extreme groups take over the American political conversation? In this final installment of a three-part series on educating citizens, Heather and Joanne look at how reactionary movements utilize bullying tactics to wrest control from the majority.
Heather and Joanne offer a comparison between the path to secession at the start of the Civil War, the rise of American Nazi-sympathizing groups in the 1930s, and the current reactionary movements around COVID-19 protocols and the education system.

El arte consiste en introducirse en las profundidades del ser, explorar las vetas que existen en sus rincones inconmensurables, escuchar los rumores y los silencios del alma y de Dios y descifrar, finalmente, su lenguaje y sus mensajes, para, más tarde, transmitirlos a la humanidad, a través de letras y palabras, colores y formas, melodías y pausas, de tal manera que los relatos, los poemas, los murales y los lienzos pictóricos, las esculturas y la música, hablen suavemente, susurren a los oídos de arcilla y a la esencia y ofrezcan pedazos de cielo y conduzcan a otras fronteras, donde la luz infinita alumbra a quienes se atreven a sentirla.

From Wall Street to the Amazon: Big capital funds mining-driven deforestation
- Major U.S. and Brazilian financial institutions continue to underwrite the destruction of the Amazon by financing mining companies pushing to operate in Indigenous territories, a new report says.
- The top financiers include BlackRock, Capital Group and Vanguard from the U.S., along with Brazilian pension fund PREVI, all of which have a stake in, have issued loans to or are otherwise financially invested in nine mining companies to the tune of $54.1 billion.
- The mining companies, which include Vale, Anglo American and Rio Tinto, have records of environmental destruction and human rights violations in Brazil and elsewhere, and several already operate close to Indigenous lands in Brazil, polluting rivers and harming the health of native communities.
- A bill currently before Brazil’s parliament could allow mining in Indigenous territories, which is currently prohibited under the country’s Constitution; the national mining authority, meanwhile, continues to register applications to mine in areas that overlap into Indigenous territories.
