    1. Lionizing individuals such as Lincoln and Finch not only erases the ways in which they have upheld racist ideas; it also minimizes (even erases) the roles played by everyday activists to push political leaders and lawyers such as Lincoln and Finch in the direction of justice.

      This has me thinking about the ways in which popular culture narratives like TV and movies participate in this lionization, especially with the preponderance of single (often white male) protagonist stories over stories about collective action.

    1. Social Annotation and an Inclusive Praxis for Open Pedagogy in the College Classroom.

      This is a fantastic article, published in a journal that includes social annotation as core functionality.

    2. Strategies to Author Annotation as brave Writing

      Great resource for shaping "brave writing" experiences for educators and/or students.

    3. “the messiness of meaning- making”

      And when meaning making is not messy, by means of what process is it "cleaned up"? This has me thinking that "ordered" or "clean" learning is maybe always less, or at least less authentic, learning.

      "Pile of Covered Books" by Ryan Adams

    4. this article in the 2019– 20 LEARN syllabus
    5. Annotation, as critical writing, is a literal, symbolic, and social means of re- marking upon and speaking truth to power.

      This has me thinking about how social annotation performs a kind of "estrangement" that maybe breaks down boundaries between the creation/publication and the reception/reading of texts when words from the authors and readers intermix in the same experience.

    6. Annotation is first draft thinking.

      oh! Annotation is brave because it is "first draft thinking"!

    7. a wider com-munity of people out there that cares about equity and is ready and willing to engage in talking about it seriously

      Just heard this from another MS participant too: finding a community of other people out there who share my experience and concerns when that is sometimes hard to find "locally".

    8. It also means that my annotations are in the paths of others and I need to consider that, forcing me to add context and consideration to my own notes.

      Epiphany! Social annotating while reading brings to READING a stance I try to have when WRITING: considering an audience. Do I read differently when my annotations mean my reading has an audience?

    9. Hypoth-esis

      Hypothesis is deeply supportive of the Marginal Syllabus community and activities!

    10. advance a marginal counternarrative to conventional profes-sional development

      I wasn't expecting this third meaning for "marginal"...and its unexpectedness maybe illustrates its power: finding ways to advance professional development/community learning in environments that may not support the exploration of specific views and topics.

    1. a neighborhood wedged between the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay and Baltimore’s industrial infrastructure

      I can't wait for this! I love Baltimore and can only start to imagine how Ebony's special skills will tell some of its stories...

    2. my tools have changed over the years.

      You can see a bit of what I think may be Ebony's working space in this 2017 interview she did for her Rona Jaffee fellowship.

    3. Image Lab at the Wisconsin Institutes for Discovery

      Not sure if the lab is still going, but here's an article about its early days.

    4. Hot Comb will be a mirror for some people and a window for others

      This would be a great prompt for a reading response: "Is the reading a window or a mirror for you? Why?"

    5. I never questioned what the many hair-product ads were really trying to sell to me

      Another of Ebony's parody ads reminds me of the beauty product adds for brands like Goop, that make dubious scientific claims as a part of their sell.

    6. how my memories — and other people’s memories, too — are tied to the senses, particularly touch

      Multimedia > multisensual: How to convey touch through sight? Sound > taste? That seems like a whole world to explore...

      "green tile, scott richard" by torbakhopper

    7. By making comics, I was able to more fully share my multisensory fieldwork experience with research participants and people outside of both my field and academia.

      This is a cool idea: how a graphic study is actually superior to a text-based study!

    8. your dissertation as a comic

    1. He cites as a success story a 2018 incident in Maryland where a high school student killed an ex-girlfriend, injured another boy and then shot himself fatally as he was fired on by an SRO.

      This is a success story? Two dead, another shot and the SRO also firing shots?

    2. Federal data analyzed by the American Civil Liberties Union shows millions of students, especially students of color, attend schools that have police officers, but no nurse or school psychologist.

      How can this be seen as anything but an imbalance in priorities? If schools are so dangerous that their security has to be a higher priority even than student mental or physical health, we have a much bigger problem than police in schools can fix.

      You can read and annotate Pranis's "The restorative Impulse" online.

    2. what is at stake if most teachers continue to assume no moral stance on the patterns associated with the active isolation and banishment of particular students in K–12 school contexts

      A strong call to teachers to enter fully into the what's happening...given how many different things teachers are already asked to do, is it too much to ask this of them too? Or is it essential that they do?

    1. the rhetorical, oral, and aural traditions of these communities

      Because social annotation enables people to add media beyond text to annotations, like emoji 🤪, images, and videos, it makes it possible to turn any online text into a multimedia following the rascuache principles Cruz Medina talked about at #NCTE2020.
