The "cancel culture" of the wealthy donors and politicians is not positive citizen action; they are squashing conversations that should be happening with more regularity. "Finally, if, upon listening to students, we conclude that they are as misinformed, confused, and lacking in nuance as the rest of us, I propose giving them more opportunities to learn. And that means understanding what the universities are for—the education of students and the acquisition and dissemination of knowledge through scholarship and publishing. Universities aren’t for donors. The pay-to-play idea of a donor not only telling the school what money has to be for but also how the school has to function going forward must end. When we let donors run universities, we’re saying that something other than inquiry, something other than a commitment to understanding, is the core function of a university."
What if we stopped trying to regulate "kids today" and committed to listen to them? My latest for Washington Monthly. https://lnkd.in/gcybqQ5a

Empowering Youth Through Sports: Overcoming Barriers Together As we navigate the complex realities of crime, poverty, and racism in our community, the importance of providing supportive pathways for our youth cannot be overstated. At LEAD Center For Youth, we are committed to using sports as a transformative tool to empower Black youth in Atlanta. This insightful article from The Atlantic [Internalizing the Myth of Meritocracy](https://lnkd.in/gy-u9Bd) sheds light on the challenges that underprivileged youth face in internalizing their achievements within a society that often perpetuates systemic barriers. At LEAD, we challenge these myths by creating a supportive environment where our young athletes learn resilience, leadership, and the value of hard work in overcoming these societal curveballs. Join us in our mission to empower an at-risk generation to lead and transform their city. Together, we can ensure that our youth not only dream of a better future but also possess the tools to make it a reality. #YouthEmpowerment #LEADCenterForYouth #OvercomingBarriers #SportsAsSolution #Atlanta

🔮 Prediction and Commentary: Empowering Children's Creativity vs. Fear of the Unknown 🔮 In a world filled with rapid technological advancements, it's refreshing to see young children engaged in a traditional art form like carving decorations for a lantern parade. However, a recent incident involving a Catholic clergyman's concern over protecting the kids from evil forces presents an unexpected interplay between tradition and personal beliefs. Let's delve deeper into this thought-provoking occurrence and analyze the potential implications. Here are a few key points to consider: 1️⃣ Creativity as an Enriching Experience: - Artistic activities like carving lantern decorations not only enrich the imaginative capacities of children, but also foster their motor skills and cognitive development. Encouraging these creative endeavors is crucial in ensuring a well-rounded education for our future generations. 2️⃣ Collision of Traditions and Beliefs: - The clergyman's intervention highlights a conflict between the majority's participation in traditional cultural practices and certain religious views. Balancing age-old customs with contemporary interpretations of religious beliefs is indeed a delicate task. The clash of perspectives raises questions about tolerance, respect, and the boundaries of personal convictions. 3️⃣ Overprotection or Prudence: - While it's essential to ensure the safety and well-being of children, it's crucial not to let fear drive us towards curtailing their experiences. Finding a middle ground between safeguarding the younger generation and providing them with opportunities to explore and express themselves is vital for their holistic growth. 4️⃣ Encouraging Dialogue and Understanding: - This incident calls for open and respectful conversations that bridge the gap between different viewpoints. Engaging in constructive discussions allows us to learn from each other's perspectives and contributes to a more empathetic and inclusive society. In conclusion, the conflicting reactions to the carving of lantern decorations by children for a lantern parade presents an intriguing dichotomy between tradition and personal beliefs. As we navigate the complexities of modern society, it is essential to find common ground that respects both traditional practices and individual convictions. By encouraging open dialogue and understanding, we can foster an environment where children are able to explore their creativity while also respecting diverse belief systems. Let us embrace the opportunity to learn from this incident and continue evolving as a compassionate and inclusive society. 💫✨ #SocialCommentary #TraditionVsBeliefs #ChildhoodCreativity #CulturalHarmony
