Honest to goodness, I’m speechless right now. That’s why, rather than blog for myself, I’ll let others write and I’ll just nod:
Sabrina Stevens Shupe on why she’s going to march (and why the rest of us should, too) …
B. Niche, whose voice is nothing minor, on being a minority in the NYC DOE …
NYC Educator, on Bloomberg’s favorite philosophy: “It’s always easier to ask for permission than for forgiveness.” …
Richard Oppel of the NY Times on why private prisons really don’t save much money, despite “wisdom” to the contrary …
Melissa Harris-Perry at The Nation on why speaking from the ivory tower isn’t always such a good idea …
And when you read any of these, let me know what you think.
Jose, who does everything big …
My name is Jose Luis Vilson, teacher, writer, public speaker, activist, Syracuse University and City College grad, poet, hip-hop enthusiast, and (certainly not least) father. I've been featured at CNN, Huffington Post, Education Week, Scholastic, TEDx, and GOOD Magazine. For more,
Some know me as Jose. Others as Mr. V. Educator, writer, activist, and father. Here I'll be posting thoughts in all those voices. 
Jose Vilson
