Longfellow is the definition of providing equity.

we stopped at longfellow school, which was slated to close in all 3 of MPS’ transformation plans, and christin crabtree explained why it is special, how it serves teen parents & keeps them in school “this kind of school is transformational in itself and should’ve never been slated for closure.”

Today is the day 🎉 🚲 🎃 SCHOOL SPIRIT: A SPOOKY BIKE PARADE FOR PUBLIC SCHOOLS ⏰ 1:30 meetup, 2pm rollout 📍 Ride start & end at Sullivan STEAM School/Anishinabe Academy

Joyful Riders Club@joyfulridersclub.bsky.social

We met up last night and got a sweet little route together for Sunday’s spooky bike parade with @christin-with-mpls.bsky.social, @shannon-for-d3.bsky.social and @beccaforschools.bsky.social! The distance is 6 miles round trip and includes a playground and Sabo Bridge stop. Wear a costume!

To paraphrase @marciaxthree.bsky.social in support of Kat’s point: Voting is when you pick who you want to protest.

Kat Rohn@rohnkat.bsky.social

It's okay to be angry at bad leadership and broken systems *and* still vote & work within them - because we shouldn't cede any of the tools we can exercise power with. Let's keep anger pointed where it should be and give more energy to building forward and caring for each other along the way.

Breaking news: The Justice Department has moved to preemptively block certification of the results of Alaska’s Senate race if Republican incumbent Sen. Dan S. Sullivan loses his tight race against Democrat Mary Peltola next month.

washingtonpost.comDOJ seeks to block Alaska Senate result if Republican incumbent narrowly losesIn a lawsuit, the Justice Department cited confusion over two similarly named candidates, including Republican Sen. Daniel S. Sullivan.

These folks are rogue and are hellbent on ramming folks. Earlier this year they drove over a suspect who was on foot.

It’s hard to wrestle with the dynamics of this election cycle while actively witnessing how campaigning and punditry is deepening wounds for the LGBTQ+ and domestic/sexual violence survivor communities I directly work with. Just a reflection on the cost of the current climate and who carries it.

this is how you summon a traffic circle in minneapolis. just go out and do burnouts in the big intersections until the city agrees with you that yes, that’s far too much space for cars

waymo representative sent to a city of minneapolis event can’t give a real answer about their vehicles utilizing bike lanes or not when this is a known PR issue for the company and we are one of the top biking cities in the country it’s talk of safety for the people inside the waymo only

Wedge LIVE!™@wedge.live

I asked the Waymo rep whether they allow their cars to park in bike lanes. She said they do, depending on city regulations. Would they comply if the city prohibits parking in bike lanes? She said she would have to get back to me on that. LAWLESS!

Not a single word of this is hyperbolic in the slightest. Buy your friends in cybersecurity the drink or chocolate of their choice right now. We are not doing well

Reupping my piece from August about the police killing of 1-year-old Kohen Wiley in Senatobia, MS, and the community that has fought for accountability to no avail. A horrible case, whose details have only been revealed thanks to independent reporting, especially via @mississippitoday.org.

Keith Ellison won back wages that Kim Bartmann stole from my friends. Restaurant workers are low income workers serving patrons who are often in much higher tax brackets. Folks in the industry almost all have stories about wage theft, whether they call it that or not. Ellison is a champion for us.

Ron has once again claimed that the Attorney General can't do anything to help Minnesotans afford their lives. Well, Ron, have I got news for you.
