The residents of Madison, Wisconsin are frequently accused in public forums of being "politically correct." Is that a valid criticism? Well, here we are, a thousand miles from the nearest saltwater and we reserve parking for OCTOPI? PETA would be so proud!
Proud to be a public school teacher for 26 years, I see teaching as a radical act. Practitioner of Neo-schoolmarmism. School Library Media Specialist. I am a convinced Quaker, born again agnostic, mother of 3 daughters, passionate about issues of peace and social justice. My mom was a "red diaper baby", my dad was a conscientious objector during WW2, and I grew up in the thick of anti-war protests in Madison, Wisconsin in the sixties. Not a Republican bone in my body and not many Democratic ones either.
