If that was the reason, why wasn't Ta-Nehisi Coates Zoomed in for his much anticipated keynote?
As announced at the #NCSS2024 President's Welcome this morning, Ta-Nehisi Coates will no longer be speaking today due to exposure to COVID-19. NCSS has extended an invitation to Mr. Coates to share his voice with us at a future event. We encourage attendees to spend time in the Exhibit Hall visiting our vendors, listening to new voices and stories.

Indiana textbook commissioner (Mrs. White) called to ban Robin Hood references in schools.

Like GOP anti-history ed bills today.

A @IUBloomington religious student group bravely challenged #McCarthyism with Green Feather campaign. 🧵
