  • I’m betting (hoping?) this was done with a bit of tongue in cheek, especially since there’s a nice, close up picture of the list and it uses up significant board real estate.

    Humbling kids with some self awareness is great, especially in middle school. Self reflection and metacognition (why do we do what we do?) are super important tools for kids and leads to more empathy and better conflict resolution.

    If this is just a teacher being a crotchety conservative, then yeah, you’re right. But I’m willing to bet the kids even helped make the list and had a good time doing it.

    I can’t separate artist and art. I feel guilty and angry. But I also don’t want to. Money to them is money to their deeds. Paying for anything Harry Potter is paying for anti-trans movements. Paying anything Gaiman goes to the “fix your image” firm he has hired. Then I start thinking that firm is probably out there with messaging convincing people to separate art from the artist.
