Debates about Ethnic Studies in K-12 and Higher Education have highlighted the importance of culturally inclusive pedagogy in schools. Despite discussions about Ethnic Studies, there is a more extended history of Mexican-origin people pushing for culturally responsive education. In Reading, Writing, and Revolution: Escuelitas and the Emergence of a Mexican American Identity in Texas (University of Texas Press, 2020), historian Philis M. Barragán-Goetz argues that through cultural negotiation, escuelitas (community schools) shaped Mexican American identity and civil rights activism in the late 19th and early 20th century. Barragán Goetz weaves in oral histories, government documents, newspapers, and archival sources to demonstrate the power in grassroots organizing for educational justice in Texas. She debunks a popular myth that Mexican Americans have not cared for education throughout history. Barragán Goetz writes that the progressive education movement in the late 19th century was not all that progressive if we examine the lived experienced of Mexican-origin people. Activists such as Idar Family, Villegas de Magnon, Maria Villarreal, Maria Renteria, and many involved in the two main Mexican American civil rights organizations of the time provided a foundation for Latina/os to be part of the fight for educational inclusion in the 20th century. Reading, Writing, and Revolution is not merely a book about educational history; it is a trailblazing study on how Mexican Americans have relied on any tools available to create a more inclusive educational system for themselves and their community. Philis M. Barragán Goetz is an Assistant Professor of History at Texas A&M University - San Antonio. She earned her Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin.

NOTE: This is a cross-post of my new podcast, 120 MONTHS, all about '90s music. I think Nostalgia Trap listeners will dig it. Follow the links to keep up with all our episodes! --------- After listening and re-listening to the playlist for January 1990, I couldn't stop thinking about The Sundays. Their album Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic stood out, not just as the best album of that month, but for producing an uncanny sense of nostalgia for the lost world of the pre-Internet 1990s. This week's guest, David Humphries, a professor of English at Queensborough Community College in New York City, knows exactly what I'm talking about. Last year he co-edited an excellent project on ‘90s music, a collection of writing called Happy Nostalgia: Making Connections with the Music of the ‘90s. His own essay, “A Couple Centuries of Sundays,” reflects on the things that make The Sundays' music so special, and he joins me on the podcast for a conversation about analog culture, lazy days on empty college campuses, the wider world of ‘90s music and, of course, the singular appeal of Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic.

Mary welcomes back Linda Harvey of Mission America to talk about the upcoming school year, and the propaganda calendar that is put into place from the moment they walk in the doors, to the last day in June during "Pride Month". We take a look at all the woke and brainwashing events that kids are subject to, none of which have anything to do with the concept of education. Wouldn't it be great to have, say, something like "Holocaust Remembrance Day" to key in on actual injustice, historically factual and worthy of study? Or is it better to teach on perversion and shame those kids who don't want to partake? Is it possible for our kids to be change agents, or is opting out the best choice? We also look at some rulings that might allow a lot of these weekly LGBTQ events to go away quietly. Teaching kids to make it in the real world with academics would be quite the concept in schools today. Linda is on the front lines of the culture wars and she is up on all the things we need to watch in order to protect our families.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

In this heartwarming episode of Reading with Your Kids, we dive into the magical world of children's literature with two passionate authors who are transforming how kids think about reading, writing, and making a difference. Rae Marsh, author of the Love Maggie series, shares her incredible journey of creating books that truly resonate with children. Inspired by her own daughters, Marsh developed a chapter book and middle-grade novel series that captures the everyday experiences of kids. Her approach is simple yet powerful: encourage children to write about what they know and love. During school visits, Marsh lights up when discussing her mission to inspire young writers. She challenges students to look around their own lives for storytelling inspiration, showing them that their personal experiences are valuable and worth sharing. Her books follow Maggie, a character based on her daughter, navigating school, family, and personal growth. Joining the conversation is Phil Hall, author of "The Day the Children Save the World," who takes a slightly different approach. Hall's book focuses on pro-social behaviors, teaching children how their actions can positively impact the world around them. Through 26 alphabetical examples, he demonstrates how small acts of kindness can create meaningful connections. Both authors share a common goal: empowering children to understand their potential. They believe kids can make a significant difference through creativity, empathy, and intentional actions. Whether it's through storytelling or everyday kindness, these authors are helping shape the next generation of compassionate, confident individuals. Listeners will be inspired by the authors' passion, humor, and commitment to nurturing young minds. The episode offers a delightful glimpse into the world of children's literature and the incredible power of storytelling.

This week you are going to meet Molly and Jane of Content Queen, a two-person Bay Area-based zine publisher. And we are going to talk about all kinds of very hot topics (including literally Hot Topic):Why do Jane and Molly make physical zines rather than virtual/online content in 2025? The answer is important and might get you thinking…How has the kind of “content” we consume (especially the content we READ) changed in the social media era?Two of Content Queen's zines that are explicitly fashion-related:  Stressful, Awkward, Envied: ‘90s and ‘00s Brands From Those Who Wore the Clothes, Worked the Registers, and Modeled for the Catalogs AND Wendy's World, “an immersion into the early-'90s downtown New York world of the ultimate cult indie fashion label, Built by Wendy.”Along the way Molly and Jane will tell us what it's like to vend at a zine fair in 2025 (and why it's different than it used to be).  And we'll wrap it all up by making our trend predictions.  Amanda gets things started with explaining why something as simple as reading is a radical act of resistance in 2025 (and why we need to protect books and libraries).Go order and read Molly and Jane's zines so we can talk about them: contentqueenzine.comFind them on IG: @contentqueenzineJOIN AMANDA FOR THE CLOTHESHORSE BIRTHDAY CRAFTERNOON ON JULY 20!Additional reading:"It's so boring': Gen Z parents don't like reading to their kids - and educators are worried," Alaina Demopoulos, The Guardian."The Elite College Students Who Can't Read Books," Rose Horowitch, The Atlantic.Banned and Challenged Books dashboard, American Library Association.Get your Clotheshorse merch here: https://clotheshorsepodcast.com/shop/If you want to share your opinion/additional thoughts on the subjects we cover in each episode, feel free to email, whether it's a typed out message or an audio recording:  amanda@clotheshorse.worldDid you enjoy this episode?

Does your child reverse letters and numbers, struggle to read aloud, forget how to spell simple words—or have a hard time memorizing their times tables? Do they seem bright but often frustrated by schoolwork? These could be signs of dyslexia or dysgraphia, which are often present alongside ADHD, making it even harder for kids to focus, retain information, and feel confident in the classroom. In this episode, I talk with Maggie Pike, a literacy and dyslexia specialist with over 20 years of experience supporting kids with learning differences. We'll explore: What dyslexia really is—and how to spot it in preschool and elementary-aged kids The root causes of literacy struggles Why kids with dyslexia may also struggle with math, memorization and fine motor skills Practical ways to build strong pre-reading skills at home The surprising gifts and strengths of neurodivergent learners If your child is struggling in school and you're not sure why, this episode will help you connect the dots—and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Moses with horns? That’s the way he’s depicted in Michelangelo’s masterpiece sculpture completed in 1515. Two horns protrude from Moses’s hair just above his forehead. Michelangelo wasn’t alone—many Renaissance and medieval artists depict Moses that way. Why? It has to do with the Latin translation of the Hebrew Bible available at the time, which described Moses’s radiant face (after being in God’s presence—see Exodus 34:29). The original language uses a word related to “horns” to describe “beams” of light shining from Moses’s face, and the Latin Vulgate Bible translated it literally. Moses was “misread.” Have you ever misread someone? After a man unable to walk from birth was healed by Peter in Jesus’ name (Acts 3:1–10), the apostle told his fellow Israelites that they had misread Jesus. “You killed the author of life,” he said pointedly, “but God raised him from the dead” (v. 15). He continued, “This is how God fulfilled what he had foretold through all the prophets, saying that his Messiah would suffer” (v. 18). Peter even said Moses had pointed to Jesus (v. 22). It was “by faith in the name of Jesus,” a “faith that comes through him,” that the man’s life was transformed (v. 16). No matter how we’ve misunderstood Him or what our past contains, Jesus welcomes us when we turn to Him. The author of life stands ready to write new beginnings for us!

Switching K-12 schools to reusables in their cafeterias is a focus for many in the reuse movement: it's a win-win-win for improving children's health, educating and empowering the community around sustainability issues, and providing an impressive ROI for school administrators. That said, no change is easy, and barriers such as up-front funding, dishwashing, and staffing are real challenges. Thankfully, Amber Schmidt from ReThink Disposable and Ben Schleifer from Center for Environmental Health have hands-on experience in surmounting these barriers, and in this discussion they share some key insights for getting reuse into schools.Enjoy this recording of the January Reuse Solutions Network meeting, and check out the resources below if you'd like to join the RSN yourself.Resources: Join the Reuse Solutions NetworkReThink DisposableCenter for Environmental HealthWashington Post: Most US schoolchildren toss their lunch trays every dayCase studies on reuse in schoolsMore Indisposable Podcast episodes about reuse in schoolsThe Indisposable Podcast is brought to you by Upstream, which is a non-governmental organization.

Scott Hulet is a legendary writer, editor, and current Creative Director at The Surfer's Journal. He also has a new book titled Flow Violento: A Scott Hulet Omnibus, which is a compilation of more than thirty years of his writing about surfing, fishing, travel, food, music, and more. If you subscribe to my book recommendations email, then you'll already know how much I loved the book– Scott brings to life the cultures, waves, and landscapes of Latin America using his unique blend of insights, humor, and perfectly crafted prose. If you're a fan of travelogues, adventure tales, and cultural immersion, I know you'll enjoy “Flow Violento.” Scott was born and raised in southern California, and he's been writing for longer than he can even remember. Skating and surfing entered his life very early, as did travel to Mexico for surf trips. Through a deep commitment to the craft of writing and surfing, he's been able to build a successful career that combines both. But for all his success, there have also been some speedbumps along the way, including a string of health scares during his fifties that culminated with a very serious stroke. But after a ton of hard work and help from some inspiring medical professionals, Scott was able to make a full recovery– and refocus his efforts on writing, traveling, and surfing. I've been a huge fan of The Surfer's Journal and Scott for many, many years, so I was honored that he took the time to chat with me about his life, work, and the new book. I caught him just a few days before he took off to the Colombian Amazon for a fishing and research trip, and we had a fun chat about reading, writing, surfing, traveling, and more. Some of the topics include: his “hunting and gathering” approach to reading: some of his favorite childhood books; his first foundational surfing and traveling experiences; moving to Hawaii after high school; becoming a professional writer; the importance of approaching new cultures with respect; his health scares and lessons learned; his surprising thoughts on social media; rules for travel; and much more. A big thanks to Scott for the conversation and his decades of important work.  And another big thanks to you for listening.  Enjoy! --- Flow Violento: A Scott Hulet Omnibus The Surfer's Journal Leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify Ed's book recs Full episode notes and links: https://mountainandprairie.com/scott-hulet/ --- TOPICS DISCUSSED: 3:30 - Scott's “hunting and gathering” approach to reading 5:30 - Scott's father's influence on his reading 7:00 - Favorite childhood books 8:15 - A brief family history 9:35 - Childhood activities in San Diego 11:45 - First three foundational surfing experiences 16:00 - First adventure in Mexico 20:30 - Approaching new cultures and locations with respect… or else 24:00 - Heading to university 25:45 - Writing: from avocation to vocation 28:00 - Mentors 34:30 - How TSJ has maintained such a loyal following in the changing world of print media 36:45 - A surprisingly positive take on Twitter/X 39:45 - The importance of knowing a wide range of people with wide ranges of ideas 44:45 - The art of editing 47:15 - Courting the Muse 49:30 - Lessons learned from several super-intense health trials 53:30 - Pre-stroke Scott vs post-stroke Scott 55:45 - How to stand out from the crowd as a creative 57:15 - There are still unknown, off-the-map places to discover 59:00 - Rules for thinking traveler 1:01:00 - Important books 1:05:00 - Parting words of wisdom --- ABOUT MOUNTAIN & PRAIRIE: Mountain & Prairie - All Episodes Mountain & Prairie Shop Mountain & Prairie on Instagram Upcoming Events About Ed Roberson Support Mountain & Prairie Leave a Review on Apple Podcasts

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy explores the critical importance of reading in a world where technology often makes it feel obsolete. She emphasizes that reading helps us understand the larger narrative of life, particularly for children who may become lost in the fast-paced cultural moment. As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly capable of generating fluent prose, Dr. Kathy warns that this could reduce the urgency for kids to develop their own writing skills. Instead, she encourages parents and educators to foster a love for reading and help children build their own ideas and understandings. Tune in for valuable insights on how to navigate these challenges and support children's development in an evolving digital landscape.

The “science of reading” is trending; but in order for professionals to engage in effective instruction, they need to understand that literacy also includes spelling and writing.Writing, spelling, and reading are interconnected, and the growing body of research continues to show us that these skills need to be taught explicitly. That's why I invited Dr. Jan Wasowicz to episode 176 of the De Facto Leaders podcast to discuss the Language Literacy Network (Link here: https://learningbydesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/TLLN_11x8.5.pdf); a framework she's created to help professionals better understand the connections between reading, writing, spelling, and language. Dr. Jan Wasowicz has more than 40 years of experience as a speech-language, literacy, and learning specialist working with students in a variety of educational settings, including public schools, Head Start programs, and private practice. Dr. Wasowicz is frequently invited to speak about best practices in literacy assessment and instruction and has taught numerous undergraduate and graduate courses, holding faculty positions at Northwestern University, Elmhurst College, Rush–Presbyterian–St. Luke's Medical Center, and Governors State University. Her credits include articles published in scholarly journals and U.S. patents for her inventions of literacy software programs including Earobics® and Spelling Performance Evaluation for Language and Literacy (SPELL-3). Dr. Wasowicz is an author of SPELL-Links to Reading & Writing and lead moderator of the SPELLTalk multi-disciplinary professional listserv. She also currently serves as an advisory board member of The Reading League of Illinois and an external consultant for Purdue University's inter-disciplinary initiative to strengthen teacher preparation using science-based methods. Dr. Wasowicz is an ASHA-certified, IL-licensed, and FL-licensed speech-language pathologist and an ASHA Board Certified Specialist in Child Language and she holds a professional educator license with multiple endorsements from the State Teacher Certification Board of Illinois. She is the founder, president and CEO of SPELL-Links | Learning By Design, Inc., and she maintains a small private practice in IL via tele-practice and in FL serving students with oral and written language disorders.This episode is part of a partnership that's happening between the BEpodcast network (Link here: https://bepodcast.network/) and Reading is Fundamental (RIF) (Link here: https://www.rif.org) in September for National Literacy Month. In this conversation, we discuss:✅Do we need a “writing rope” to supplement the “reading rope”? Or should reading, writing and language be woven in to one literacy framework?✅Pragmatics, executive functioning, and metalinguistic awareness: How do these components fit in to effective literacy instruction?✅Does working on reading improve spelling? Does working on spelling improve reading? ✅Should professionals work on linguistic skills in stages? When/how should professionals start working on morphology in elementary school?✅Defining “print to speech” and “speech to print” approaches (with specific examples).

For many men, surviving the test of battle intensifies the joy of being alive. A provocative claim, perhaps, but to novelist Mark Helprin, simply a fact, and one that drives his new book about men who commit themselves fully both to service during wartime and to the women they love. Listen as Helprin tells EconTalk's Russ Roberts how his service in the Israeli and American militaries, his decades of journalism and outdoor adventure, and his long career in defense and foreign policy enabled him to write The Oceans and the Stars, a lyrical and thrilling look at leadership in the crucible of war--and at sea. They also discuss Helprin's writing routine and sources of inspiration, his analysis of Israel's real-life war against Iran and its proxies, and his thoughts on the state of American culture today.

The Dean's List with Host Dean Bowen – Paul Adams explores the shift from a virtues-based to a values-driven education. He argues that this change relativizes moral thinking, turning truth into mere opinion. In contrast, virtues form character and instill foundational qualities essential for society. Classical Christian Schools, emphasizing virtues, aim to restore these foundational principles in education.

If you were in middle school or high school in the last couple of decades, there's a good chance you were assigned Sherman's classic young adult novel The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, an epistolary novel with cartoon illustrations about a native teenage boy growing up on the Spokane Indian Reservation who decides to attend a nearly all-white high school. The book is semi-autobiographical. Sherman grew up on that reservation in the 1970s and 80s and is a member of the Spokane Tribe. He is also arguably — or perhaps inarguably — the most significant native American writer of the last 30 years. Not only did The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian win the 2007 National Book Award for Young People's Literature, among other prizes, but his 2009 book War Dances won the 2010 Pen/Faulkner award for fiction, and his 1993 story collection The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven was adapted into the popular and highly acclaimed film Smoke Signals. Best of all (for me, anyway), Sherman is teaching a class for the brand-new Unspeakeasy School Of Thought. It's in a brand new genre: Writing Your Cancelation Story. In this conversation, Sherman talks about his career, his 2018 “cancelation event” (or at least its aftermath) and offers his thoughts on the state of writing and publishing, not least of all the recent incident wherein editors at the journal Guernica retracted an essay when the Twitter mob and its own staffers deemed it harmful, even “genocidal.” GUEST BIO Sherman Alexie is a poet, short story writer, novelist, essayist, memoirist, and filmmaker. He's published two dozen books, including The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, which won the National Book Award for Young People's Literature and was listed by the American Library Association as the Most Banned and Challenged Book from 2010 to 2019. He's won the PEN-Faulkner and PEN-Malamud awards, and he wrote and co-produced the award-winning film Smoke Signals, which was based on his short story collection The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven.
