Teaching

...is, I fear, going to be a terrible slog this summer. Online learning is being a terrible headache. It is alienating at best (which is not to deny the usefulness of accessibility it makes available as a supplement and certain creative possibilities worthy of exploration around the edges). But to have it happening in the midst of a school closure, pandemic, righteous uprising, rising authoritarian tyranny, and what sometimes feels like a slow-rolling multi-year nervous breakdown at this point is really, truly, ugh.
