A few weeks later, I become a citizen of the United States. Immigrants are supposed to be grateful. The narrative arc of immigration, in which one flees their own failing society to come to a better place, a country that was under no obligation to accept them but did, demands perpetual gratitude. And it exists, this gratitude, but the narrative makes no room for the many shapes it comes in, its many less straightforward forms. I harbor no ill will toward the immigrant who waves the miniature flag on the sides of the Independence Day parade, who says honestly and plainly: I love this country. But nor do I judge the immigrant who is as emotionless and pragmatic about the nation-state as the people who run that nation-state are so regularly emotionless and pragmatic about immigrants, who says honestly and plainly: I don’t love this country, don’t love any country, patriotism being the property of an entirely different kind of life than luck has given me; I live here because it will always be safer to live on the launching side of the missiles. I live here because I am afraid.

–From Omar el Akkad’s One Day Everyone Will have Been Against This (2025).

    Something had bothered me about the Bunnell Elementary incident… and still does.

    Perhaps in the end it’s simply not (only) that the teachers resorted to coercion and bribery, but that they had completely lost sight of their own accomplishments and their own living example to those students to whom they were trying to effect academic change.

    None seemed to come out and say… “I’m a teacher, I’m proud to be one, it’s an honorable profession and it’s an honest living… and YOU TOO CAN BE ONE SOME DAY.”

    There’s really something wrong when teachers seem to forget that… or are led to lose sight of the most basic of lessons to their pupils, that of their own living example… by circumstance.

    But I suppose that’s what Pierre was noting back when he commented on the pressures and predicaments afflicting many teachers, both internal and external to the classroom today.

    Just a final comment… an opportunity to put voice to a point of thought on that matter which had eluded me.
