Thursday 4/20 Call to Action

Thursday.  Remember the excitement you felt when your teacher came into the classroom pushing the television cart?  A movie in class!  Well today is the audio visual version of TPOM's Call to Action.  Hooray!!

1.  Science is real!
An important message from Neil deGrasse Tyson.  This man is smart.  We should listen to him.  When you are done, contact your representatives and senators (state and U.S.) and ask them what steps they are taking to protect science.

2.  This Fight is Our Fight
Sen. Elizabeth Warren visited The Rachel Maddow Show to share her new book.  Please, carve out some time to watch these clips.  I found her message so inspiring.  If you are weary like me, this is the half-time pep talk you need.  I love smart people
