YES; there should be a 24-hr Recovery channel too. People don’t fully realize that the airwaves belong to us. An all-commercial TV model is what happens when everything is financialized, things turned into commodities to buy & sell that instead should be used for the common good

I’m sure many people have said this, but I haven’t seen anything about it. Why isn’t there a set of TV channels available nationwide by September that has school curriculum taught all day with simple scheduling? It would be more accessible than everyone needing a computer + wifi.

Even PBS has been commercialized. In Atlanta they're always running these goofy brain health infomercials.

Excellent idea to have curricula broadcast free of charge!

Good tweet...but aren’t you under anesthesia just now? Even unconscious you’re rallying America to better itself?!?

Both good ideas!

When I was younger my parents thought that’s how school would be taught one day. They suggested I get started working on it, 1996! I said kids need real human connection. But now seeing what happens in a pandemic I think that is a phenomenal Plan B.

I don't think anyone trusts this administration to approve of a national TV curriculum for students. Imagine Ted Cruz or Jim Jordan having their time with a mic or camera on this subject. Education is already deemed a Marxist plot to overthrow their white Christian values.
