📰 Teacher Wins $1M Prize for Turning India’s Slums Into Hundreds of Open-Air Classrooms
🗒 "...Ms. Nagi designs education around real life: flexible schedules for working children, hands-on learning using recycled materials, and practical skills that demonstrate immediate value to families. As a result, her programs have reduced dropout rates by more than 50% and significantly improved long-term school retention."

Once upon a time, I was so proud to have taught philosophy at #UT. Now, I’m begging people to not come to #Texas for school. Just like it’s not safe for anyone to visit the USA, it is not safe to attempt an education in a state controlled by #YeeHawdists.
The UT System passed new restrictions Thursday that limit how “controversial topics” can be taught in the classroom, raising concerns about the rigor and quality of #education students will receive.
The new policy comes as #gop state leaders, including Gov. Greg Abbott, exercise increased influence on Texas’ public universities to eradicate what they see as liberal bias on campuses.
The entire purpose of a university is to teach and argue and contest information. If you are not pushing past what we already know, you are failing as an educator.
Today is the deadline to pay the school fees for my children, Amal & Diaa.
As a mother, keeping them in school is my greatest worry and my only hope.
Any support—even the smallest—can help protect their right to learn.
If you can’t donate, a boost or a prayer means a lot 🤍
