#boarding-school — Public Fediverse posts

Quite frankly one fewer #BoardingSchool in #England is a *good* thing (I'm a survivor of these places) - even if they are no longer as much the #safeguarding and #abuse nightmare they were in 1980s, they still embed the fucked up class system that causes many of the long term problems in our country..

#WritersCoffeeClub 20 April 2025: What role does #Religion play in your #Writing ?

Religion or #faith plays a significant but subtle role in my #RallyRhoades series. These are #cozymystery stories ( #feminist take on #NeroWolfe meets #TrixieBelden ) are set at an #Episcopal #BoardingSchool

In other words, the rituals & tradition of an Episcopal school provide the daily rhythms & moral foundations of the stories. They are discussed & noted but not always in great detail. They definitely color the lens through which I, & the characters, see the world of the #TyndaleAcademies however, I don’t think readers need to be intimately aware of or even familiar with their nuances in order to enjoy or understand the stories (just like you don’t have to be a gourmand to appreciate the Nero Wolfe stories).

When I began writing these, I was emphatic that I wanted an Episcopal boarding school & flavor although I am still not sure why other than for authenticity (it’s my personal background).

The director of the institution, Pierre Silviet-Carricart, has been charged of the case of sexual assault. François Bayrou asked the investigating judge for a meeting at his place. The discussion was around the risks for the Bayrous' son, then a student at the boarding school. François Bayrou's wife attended the director's funeral in 2000.

At Parliament, on 11th February 2025, François Bayrou was representing the government for the weekly question-and-answer session. When asked about #Bétharram, he stated before the National Assembly that he had "never been informed of any violence, and even less of sexual violence".

François #Bayrou is the current Prime Minister of #France.

In 1996, violence was denounced in the elite catholic school of his constituency. He made an official visit as both the then Minister of National Education and a member of the National Assembly for a seat in Béarn (the province of the school). He told the regional press: "The people of Béarn felt these attacks with a sense of pain and a sense of injustice. […] All the checks were favourable and positive."

If you actually rejected the US right wing, you would call it #Socialism, which is not a four letter word, or something evil. It's looking out for all people! You know what they pretend to believe in their churches but actually practice the exact opposite! #BoardingSchool #GirlsSchool #Pussy #Pussies #kissing #Fingering #Lesbians #Naked #FirstTime #boobs #Boobies

#NDNCollective Rallies in front of White House Calling for Executive #Clemency for #LeonardPeltier

For Immediate Release: September 18, 2024

Washington, DC – "NDN Collective rallied in front of the White House today and called for executive clemency for Leonard Peltier. At 80 years old, #Peltier has been incarcerated for nearly 50 years and is now in very poor health. Time is of the essence to release Leonard Peltier, the longest held #Indigenous political prisoner in U.S. history.

"On April 19, 2024, Peltier’s request for a compassionate release was denied by the Bureau of Prisons. On July 2, 2024, Peltier was denied parole after a full parole hearing was held on June 10, 2024. Peltier will not be eligible for another hearing for 15 years, when he will be 94. As a result of this denial and Peltier’s age, #ExecutiveClemency is his best opportunity to be released.

"NDN Collective is spending the week in Washington to meet with elected officials, calling upon representatives and federal officials to take action on a number of issues including supporting the release of Leonard Pelteir. The following statements were shared on behalf of the organization:

"'President Biden now has the opportunity to solidify his already extraordinary legacy in Indian Country as the U.S. president that granted clemency to Leonard Peltier and finally right a grave #injustice,' said Holly Cook Macarro, Government Affairs for NDN Collective. 'In the next few months we are going to organize our many allies in Congress and around the world to unite their voices and support the call for clemency from President #Biden.

"'America’s longest living and incarcerated Indigenous political prisoner, Leonard Peltier, is a #BoardingSchool survivor,' said Nick Tilsen, NDN Collective President and CEO. 'He lived through the atrocities of those schools and while this country is reckoning with the traumas inflicted on our people by these institutions, it’s important to lift up all our elders who survived boarding schools, Leonard included.'

"'The fact that Leonard is still behind bars is the result of a longstanding campaign against him by the #FBI,' said Janene Yazzie, Director of Policy and Advocacy for NDN Collective. 'Despite the plethora of evidence that shows the system injustices that led to his incarceration, the narrative of the FBI continues to paint Leonard as a murderer. As we move forward, we need to look at all the research and good work done by our partners and other #HumanRights organizations on Leonard’s case to keep ourselves informed.'

"To support Leonard’s freedom, NDN Collective is asking people to:

- Call senators and urge them to support executive clemency for Leonard Peltier

- Watch the latest #RedNationMovement podcast on Leonard’s case

- Download the toolkit at freeleonard-peltier.com

- Text FREELEONARD to 50302 for more updates"

#BoardingSchool

Being packed off to #BoardingSchool from the age of 8 for five years impacted my emotional growth considerably.

My folks didn't want me to come back home, I had no voice, I gave up trying to be heard from the depths of a system hell-bent on conformity and obedience.

Age 54, I still get panic attacks, low self esteem, tendency to self medicate, difficulty making meaningful and lasting relationships.

I want to get better and I don't quite know how. Does childhood trauma ever get resolved?

#DormLife #BoardingSchool #GirlsSchool

Last night I had a #anime #party in the common room, it's a biweekly event. We started with the #LoveHina #Christmas special and followed it up with two episodes of #Citrus and two episodes of #SpyXFamily. It so nice to watch anime with a group. 💕💕💕

I wore a fuzzy pink romper with a hoody with long bunny ears and was super comfortable. 🐇

I don't know why #JohnGreen changed the name of his school cafeteria's signature dish "bufriedo" in Looking For Alaska, but in reality they were called crispitoes and they were every bit as life-changing as his description would have you believe !

#BoardingSchool

"The Native American boarding school system — a decades-long effort to assimilate Indigenous people before they ever reached adulthood — robbed children of their culture, family bonds and sometimes their lives."

@professorkiosk IOU up there with Welcome To Facebook 😹 I find being myself hereabouts the best part, others can like it or lump it, but if I bring a #laugh or a morsel of #ClimateChange I’ve done my part. My formative years were at #boardingschool, a #grammarschool not private toffs club. On the whole good, but I’ve learnt by accident after 70 years on the planet that the best bit is to keep them going. Minds are like parachutes, work best when open. #MALPWBWO
