The Chronicles of Daisy and Koopa

Momma of 1 human, 1 beagle, and 2 cats. I love to crochet and will post it on here, (most of the time with one of said babies on the crochet).

Forever floating between optimism and soul-crushing despair.

Forever lacking a connection. Is it fear?

What Daisy doesn't want you to know, is how much time it took her to figure out which ribbon was real.

The pup hanging with me while baby naps. She enjoys not sharing me with her lil bro. Featuring my waffle stitch crochet blanket in the background. I really need to get around to putting a border on it, especially since it's a queen-sized blanket! For some reason, I never feel like tucking ends and adding borders, even after spending weeks making the blanket!

And come morning, I am disappeared.

Just an imprint on your bedsheets.

How can I reblog this a million times?  The 1% are master manipulators.

The existence of another poor person is not why you’re poor.

Spot on. Like Coretta Scott King said, I must remind you that starving a child is violence. Neglecting school children is violence. Punishing a mother and her family is violence. Discrimination against a working man is violence. Ghetto housing is violence. Ignoring medical need is violence. Contempt for poverty is violence.

Because treating people fairly often means treating them differently.

This is something that I teach my students during the first week of school and they understand it. Eight year olds can understand this and all it costs is a box of band-aids.

I have each students pretend they got hurt and need a band-aid. Children love band-aids. I ask the first one where they are hurt. If he says his finger, I put the band-aid on his finger. Then I ask the second one where they are hurt. No matter what that child says, I put the band-aid on their finger exactly like the first child. I keep doing that through the whole class. No matter where they say their pretend injury is, I do the same thing I did with the first one.

After they all have band-aids in the same spot, I ask if that actually helped any of them other than the first child. I say, “Well, I helped all of you the same! You all have one band-aid!” And they’ll try to get me to understand that they were hurt somewhere else. I act like I’m just now understanding it. Then I explain, “There might be moments this year where some of you get different things because you need them differently, just like you needed a band-aid in a different spot.” 

If at any time any of my students ask why one student has a different assignment, or gets taken out of the class for a subject, or gets another teacher to come in and help them throughout the year, I remind my students of the band-aids they got at the start of the school year and they stop complaining. That’s why eight year olds can understand equity.
