Why Do Only White People Get Abducted by Aliens?: Teaching Lessons from the Bronx - Ilana Garon Audiobook
Shared by:MojoYugen

Format: M4B
According to Ilana Garon, popular books and movies are inundated with the myth of the “hero teacher”—the one who charges headfirst into dysfunctional inner city schools like a firefighter into an inferno, bringing the student victims to safety through a combination of charisma and innate righteousness. The students are then “saved” by the teacher’s idealism, empathy, and willingness to put faith in kids who have been given up on by society as a whole. “Why Do Only White People Get Abducted by Aliens?” is not that type of book.
In this book, Garon reveals the sometimes humorous, oftentimes frustrating, and occasionally horrifying truths that accompany the experience of teaching at a public high school in the Bronx today. The overcrowded classrooms, lack of textbooks, and abundance of mice, cockroaches, and drugs weren’t the only challenges Garon faced during her first four years as a teacher. Every day, she’d interact with students such as Kayron, Carlos, Felicia, Jonah, Elizabeth, and Tonya—students dealing with real-life addictions, miscarriages, stints in “juvie,” abusive relationships, turf wars, and gang violence. These students also brought with them big dreams and uncommon insight—and challenged everything Garon thought she knew about education.
In response, Garon—a naive, suburban girl with a curly ponytail, freckles, and Harry Potter glasses—opened her eyes, rolled up her sleeves, and learned to distinguish between mitigated failure and qualified success. In this book, Garon explains how she learned that being a new teacher was about trial by fire, making mistakes, learning from the very students she was teaching, and occasionally admitting that she may not have answers to their thought-provoking (and amusing) questions.

I would like to point out that literally the first abduction case involved a Black man (Barney Hill). I’ve heard people say that before and it is BS.
This may well be a good book, but the title is not good.
August 3rd, 2023
So basically fake news about fake news.
August 3rd, 2023
I thought about Barney Hill as soon as I read the book title.
August 3rd, 2023
can someone please seed?
August 3rd, 2023
I’m an Alien, simple answer is…
We’re very very rascist…
August 3rd, 2023
We’re going to need help fixing this one. Quick, somebody run up to the roof & turn on the SJW signal.
Alien Abduction Affirmative Action
Get Jesse Jackson to shakedown the aliens.

So aliens are racist or colorblind??
August 4th, 2023
The aliens only want access to US American bottoms. They’re not interested in bottoms that require subtitles.
August 4th, 2023
The title is not true one of the most famous Alien abduction cases was the Barney and Betty Hill incident. They were a interracial couple.
August 4th, 2023
All the usual bigots triggered by a title (actually, only half the title) that has nothing to do with the actual subject of the book.
ChatGPT would make more on point and coherent comments.
August 4th, 2023
Pretty obvious that if they’re were real aliens interested in checking out human bottoms, they wouldn’t be fixated scrawny white bottoms in trailer parks, but would be abducting black girls with that junk in the trunk. Therefore, these hill billys are all lying.
August 4th, 2023
Okay, people stop pointing out everything that you think is racist maybe a kid asked her that question and maybe she told him/her about the barny whatever or maybe it’s just a selling strategy as that title did get your attention.
So chill don’t bother with if it’s racist or not.
August 4th, 2023
Thank you for this, Mojo! Would love to see more books like this, regarding teaching and learning.
August 4th, 2023
Whatever way we divide it, bottom line is that human bottoms must be the most universally alluring. Alien people cum vast distances to access that ass. However, having travelled all those megaparsecs, they can’t really be too bothered going very far outside California & environs.

It’s unreal that so few have heard this phrase before, but unsurprising. White men just cannot understand anything subtle that requires thinking and contemplation and have no idea what non-white people do, which is why they’re so stiff, boring and angry all the time.
For a white man, to make a point, you must bang your first on a table, scream threats as loudly as possible, angrily point at everyone and say things that will ensure that nobody will say anything after your red-faced, drooling, belly-hanging-over-the-belt rant is over.
Perhaps show your gun, so that the other people at your kindergarten parent-teacher meeting will know you mean business… LOL

koloko, this internet is yet another white man invention you can’t live without. You need our technology to berate us. Ba ha.
Have you ever been on a pedal or motor bike, in a car, plane or train and thought if the white man did not invent them would you be walking & never have gone more than 5 miles from home?
koloko,no matter how much you cry & moan & try & put us down, it will never change the fact that white men invented all of it. You even need our language. What would you be doing if you could not read & write English?
If white men walked off the job, western civ would fall apart within days.
If you paid attention, you would have noticed that the pendulum is about to swing back, so stay frosty.
*White men still hold majority of US science and engineering jobs*
‘Despite gains by women and people of colour, men continue to occupy almost three-quarters of all science and engineering positions in the nation, and close to two-thirds are occupied by those who identify as white.’
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-00865-w
And this is after spending millions on equal opportunity & free tuition for women and non whites - This tax payer funded free ride & hand holding for all except white males has been going on for decades, but y’all still blame whitey for every personal failure. When I fail, the world don’t make excuses for me, so I learn & grow & do better. I don’t have Hollywood & academia making excuses and scapegoating an entire demo graph for my mistakes and failures. When all your failures are blamed on others you will never learn and become strong. Not one of you would want to grow up with what I had to deal with. It’s the one instance you could say a cruel druken white man beat you down and you would be correct. In the big world the vast majority of white men are not guilty of any of those crimes. If we were anything like our fore fathers you would be enslaved and beaten for getting lippy and the women folk would be in the kitchen. None of that has happened for a long time, but you wouldn’t know it given the ceaseless crying-lying. If you snivelers put the huge effort you put into blaming and ducking your responsibilities into studying you could earn a PHD or build something worthwhile. I think y’all are addicted to playing victim and deep down are afraid of a world without the white man to blame when things go wrong. Like teenagers who want to be treated as independent, but without the responsibilities.
The crying and accusing has worked so good there’s no damn way y’all will give it up because you lied when you claimed you wanted equality - you want to be the master. You crave power as much as anyone. Trust me, I’m a white man, I know criminal power seekers when I see them. Y’all remember to keep an eye out over your shoulder - you wouldn’t want to get hit by that pendulum when it swings back. If you listen to the wealth of history books here, you’d know that the pendulum may pause for a moment, but it never stops.
Wooooooosh!

Sounds like the liberal author is jealous and needs an anal probing ?

To be truthful the other-ones smell funny

While I can’t comment on the quality or availability of the files in this torrent, I CAN point out that when I saw it, it was listed just below:
“Captured! The Betty and Barney Hill UFO Experience: The True Story of the World’s First Documented Alien Abduction - Stanton T. Friedman MSc, Kathleen Marden, Dr. Bruce Maccabee - foreword”
Literally, right BELOW an account of the very FIRST alien abduction… of a black man and his wife.
That doesn’t help much with the ol’ credibility.
Just sayin’.
