Blame here but you also are being seen by all the other kids in the hallway. So this is an important moment. So instead of doing that, what i believe a teacher should do because you assess themselves, sometimes you dont know these kids and they are really big. 11th grade kids are big and you have 30 kids, you have 7 periods a day, you have 5 minutes between classes, if that, youd like to go to the bathroom at someplace, you have 30 kids coming to your next class, they are bigger than you, you dont know what to do, you know theres a bullying thing in process, you do the same instinctively as fast as you can, which is to say are they bothering you. With all due respect to the wonderful politicians in the room, what do you about putting bullying policy together is easy. What these people do to actually implement it is really hard and if that moment applause so i really want you to think about like 7 periods a day with teenagers with a 5minute break. So what do you do . So you walk down th
Consequences to the boys who got called in. Were there consequences . Yeah, i mean, you see a type of disciplining that happens afterwards which was really, it was amazing. It felt like they didnt even want to deal with it. The only reason they actually dealt with it because i was in their face going are you guys going to deal with this . Are you actually going to call in any of these kids . There was such a kind of yawn response to it. The discipline was pretty very weak in many ways. But so it calls forth for me as an example about School Climate that i learned over the course of my year of shooting in that school because people talk about School Climate all the time and i think its hard to grasp, right . Although i know that this is a room of people that do deal with this and think about this all the time, but i will just share this one anecdote, which is during the course of that year, this is now frame this up against alex has just been assaulted by 10 kids on the bus, hes a kid w
Does contain language and content that some viewers may find offense. I am happy to be here, i spent most of my writing days on twitter, i use it as a crazy tool to actually test out jokes, test out content, get the feel of how many people that follow me actually follow the news, which means you get a lot of really super smart people who say hi to you on twitter. And i think what separates us from them is that were not afraid of reality and science. Yeah and one of my favorite twitter experiences ever, was that when bill nye and myself were doing somebody tweeted to me, hey, heres your proof that the earth is 6,000 years old. And im like, you know, automatic awkward, fire was invented 10,000 years ago. And he tweeted back at me, wh ore, and i tweeted back, yeah, i might be a whore, but youre still wrong. And so what if im a whore, what does that have to do with anything . I know, maybe smart sex workers who are way smarter than me. And who believe in science. Yes. That my favorite thin

Thank you so much. Are you having fun . I know, its cool. I just have to say one thing because i think when we have progressive victories they are very important to announce. When my friends are behind the progressive victories i really like to announce them. Shannon moore and jeanie devon have worked for years tirelessly to end the pebble mine in alaska. The pebble mine will not be built in alaska. I think it so important to give them a shout out. If you are work on issues that are hard having to do with water and climate, these women have made it so compelling and so interesting and they are tireless fighters and so i just want to give them a shout out because i love them. Alaska is a faraway place. Ive been to bristol bay and ive seen what this place is. To work this hard to preserve 17,000 j
