happy may day. instead of teaching regular classes today i'm doing a teach-in for my students on the current immigration legislation (& some history of may day).

some info on what's happening today & why:
bay area immigrant rights coalition
no on HR4437
national network for immigrant & refugee rights
walkout/strike information for workers & for students

Happy MayDay indeed. One of my favorite holidays.

Love that you're doing a teach-in on immigrant rights. Way to go!

Thanks for the cool links. :)

yeah, it was either a teach-in or not go at all, & i figured it would be more useful in the long run to spend the time talking with my students about this stuff.

Hey, would you mind if I read your journal? I've seen you around gendernerdy's place, and we seem to have similar politics, from your links and such. Anybody who did a teach-in on what's been going on around immigration is somebody I wanna read!

Hey there-- It seems like we have several mutual friends and judging from some of your comments, you seem like a cool guy. I'd love to be lj friends if you're down with it. Let me know if that sounds good and if so we can add one another.
