Another day of frigid wind chills and brutal cold across much of the U.S. (AP) Brutally cold temperatures and dangerous wind chills stayed put across much of the U.S. Monday, promising the coldest temperatures ever for Iowa’s presidential nominating contest, holding up travelers, and testing the mettle of NFL fans in Buffalo for a playoff game that was delayed a day by wind-whipped snow. About 150 million Americans were under a wind chill warning or advisory for dangerous cold and wind, said Zack Taylor, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in College Park, Maryland, as an Arctic air mass spilled south and eastward across the U.S. Sunday morning saw temperatures as low as minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 6.7 degree Celsius) to minus 40 F in northern and northeast Montana. Saco, Montana, dropped to minus 51 F (minus 26 C). Subzero lows reached as far south as Kansas, Missouri, Illinois and parts of Indiana, Taylor said.

Migrant deaths in Rio Grande intensify tensions between Texas, Biden administration over crossings (AP) After Texas fenced off a park along the U.S.-Mexico border and began turning away Border Patrol agents, Republican Gov. Greg Abbott explained why at a campaign stop near Houston. “We are not allowing Border Patrol on that property anymore,” Abbott said Friday, drawing applause from supporters. He relayed frustration over migrants illegally entering the U.S. through the border city of Eagle Pass and federal agents loading them onto buses. “We said, ‘We’ve had it. We’re not going to let this happen anymore,’” Abbott said. Later that night, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security said three migrants, including two children, drowned near the park after Texas officials “physically barred” Border Patrol agents from entering. Mexican authorities pulled the bodies, each of them wearing jackets, from the water on the other side of the Rio Grande.

Guatemala’s New President Is Sworn In, Despite Efforts to Stop Him (NYT) Despite staunch resistance from his opponents in the government, the anticorruption crusader Bernardo Arévalo was inaugurated early Monday morning as Guatemala’s president, a turning point in a country where tensions have been simmering over widespread graft and impunity. His inauguration had been scheduled for Sunday, but members of Congress delayed it, and concerns persisted about whether it would happen at all. But after an international outcry and pressure from protesters, Mr. Arévalo was sworn in shortly after midnight, becoming Guatemala’s most progressive head of state since democracy was re-established in the 1980s. His rise to power—six months after his victory at the polls delivered a stunning rebuke to Guatemala’s conservative political establishment—amounts to a sea change in Central America’s most populous country. His landslide election reflected broad support for his proposals to curb graft and revive a teetering democracy. But as Mr. Arévalo prepares to govern, he must assert control while facing off against an alliance of conservative prosecutors, members of Congress and other political figures who have gutted Guatemala’s governing institutions in recent years.

Columns of tractors gather in Berlin for the climax of a week of protests by farmers (AP) Columns of tractors rolled into Berlin on Monday as farmers gathered for the climax of a week of demonstrations against a plan to scrap tax breaks on the diesel they use, a protest that has tapped into wider discontent with Germany’s government. Over the past week, farmers have blocked highway entrances and slowed down traffic across Germany with their protests, intent on pushing Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s government to abandon the planned cuts entirely. The farmers’ protests come at a time of deep general discontent with the center-left Scholz’s government, which has become notorious for frequent public squabbles and lengthy wrangling over sometimes poorly communicated decisions. Scholz acknowledged concerns that go well beyond farming subsidies, saying that crises, conflicts and worries about the future are unsettling people.

Lava from Icelandic volcano eruption engulfs homes, roads (Washington Post) A volcano that erupted in southwestern Iceland over the weekend sent lava pouring into a nearby fishing town, swallowing up roads and setting at least three houses alight, footage shared by national broadcaster RUV showed. The volcano erupted around 8 a.m. local time Sunday after a series of earthquakes, the country’s meteorological office said. Molten rock from two nearby fissures streamed into the town of Grindavik, the agency said. “Lava is flowing into Grindavik, a thriving town where people have built their lives,” Icelandic President Gudni Thorlacius Johannesson said in an address to the nation Sunday evening, describing “tremendous forces of nature” at play. It was the first time in more than 50 years that lava had flowed over Icelandic homes, he said.

United Nations seeks $4.2 billion to help people in Ukraine and refugees this year (AP) The United Nations appealed on Monday for $4.2 billion to help people in Ukraine and displaced outside the country this year, saying that people on the front lines have “exhausted their meager resources” and many refugees also are vulnerable. About three-quarters of the total, $3.1 billion, is meant to support some 8.5 million people inside Ukraine. The remaining $1.1 billion is sought for refugees and host communities outside Ukraine. A recent wave of attacks “underscores the devastating civilian cost of the war” and a bitter winter is increasing the need for humanitarian aid, the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said in a statement from Geneva.

War or No War, Many Older Ukrainians Want to Stay Put (NYT) They sit in ones and twos in half-destroyed homes. They shelter in musty basements marked in chalk with “people underground”—a message to whichever troops happen to be fighting that day. They venture out to visit cemeteries and reminisce about any time other than now. Ukraine’s elderly are often the only people who remain along the country’s hundreds of miles of front line. Some waited their entire lives to enjoy their twilight years, only to have been left in a purgatory of loneliness. Homes built with their own hands are now crumbling walls and blown-out windows, with framed photographs of loved ones living far away. Some people have already buried their children, and their only wish is to stay close so they can be buried next to them. Almost two years into Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, with war at their doorsteps, older people who have stayed behind offer varying reasons for their decisions. Some simply prefer to be at home, whatever the dangers, rather than to struggle in an unfamiliar place among strangers. Others do not have the financial means to leave and start over.

After attempts to meddle in Taiwan’s elections fail, China takes stock (Washington Post) Taiwanese voters have made it clear—for the third time in a row—that they don’t want a leader who will kowtow to China. The democratic island on Saturday elected as president Lai Ching-te, the current vice president and former independence advocate whom Beijing views as a dangerous “separatist.” Now, Beijing must craft a response. For Beijing, Lai’s victory is a loss that deepens anxiety about its ability to bring Taiwan under its control, a long-held goal of the ruling Communist Party and a key part of Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s legacy. The result gives Taiwan’s ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), which Beijing refuses to engage with, an unprecedented third term. “A Lai win will mean that Xi loses face,” said Chen Fang-Yu, assistant professor of political science at Soochow University in Taipei. “It means his Taiwan policy has failed. So now he must do something to show his muscle.” China’s initial response to Lai’s victory was predictable: Officials issued the usual strongly worded statements on Sunday, and Beijing’s embassies in countries that congratulated Lai condemned them for “interfering in China’s internal affairs.”

Australia celebrates Australian-born queen of Denmark (AP) A day after an Australian became queen of Denmark. her native land on Monday celebrated the unlikely fairy tale with cocktails, picnics and a “Danish Fiesta.” Mary Donaldson’s journey from Tasmania to the world’s first Australian-born queen has captivated both Danes and Australians. People gathered to mark the occasion across Australia, including Queen Mary’s hometown of Hobart, the capital of the southern island state of Tasmania. “It’s not something that happens every day that you have an Australian becoming queen. I don’t know if it will ever happen again,” Danish Club Vice President Lykka Borup told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. Mary’s husband, Crown Prince Frederik, was proclaimed king of the European nation on Sunday, two weeks after his 83-year-old mother, Queen Margrethe II, announced she would be the first Danish royal to abdicate in about 900 years.

Grief and vengeance: 100 days of war in Israel, Gaza and the West Bank (Washington Post) It’s been three months since Hamas fighters attacked Israel, killing 1,200 people and taking about 240 hostage. In response, the Israeli military unleashed a level of force unprecedented in Gaza, killing more than 23,900 people. In the occupied West Bank, Israeli settlers have stepped up attacks on rural Palestinian communities, accelerating Arab displacement as the war and large-scale arrests fan a new generation of Palestinian militancy in the cities. Israel today is a nation heavy with shock, looking for answers and often also for vengeance. The streets are slowly coming back to life, but they feel anything but normal. Young reservists must take their weapons as they go about their business. The faces of the Israeli hostages are reproduced in shop windows and on government buildings alongside three words that are now a rallying cry: “Bring them home.” Newsstands and television screens show over and over the scenes of Hamas’s crimes. They show the Israeli army in Gaza. But they rarely show what is happening to civilians. Palestinians there are frantic and bone-tired. The pace of death is so fast, the possibility of famine so close, that residents say they have little time to mourn or to process their losses. Fear—how to survive the night, how to find a little food—is a more pressing constant. With more than two-thirds of homes now destroyed, much of Gaza is effectively gone.

Houthi rebels strike a U.S.-owned ship off the coast of Yemen (AP) Houthi rebels fired a missile, striking a U.S.-owned ship Monday just off the coast of Yemen in the Gulf of Aden, less than a day after they launched an anti-ship cruise missile toward an American destroyer in the Red Sea. The attack on the Gibraltar Eagle, later claimed by the Houthis, further escalates tensions gripping the Red Sea after American-led strikes on the rebels. The Houthis’ attacks have roiled global shipping, amid Israel’s war with Hamas in the Gaza Strip, targeting a crucial corridor linking Asian and Mideast energy and cargo shipments to the Suez Canal onward to Europe. “The ship has reported no injuries or significant damage and is continuing its journey,” the U.S. Central Command said.

Cyclone causes heavy flooding, 1 death in Mauritius after also battering French island of Reunion (AP) A tropical cyclone caused heavy flooding and at least one death in Mauritius on Monday as cars were washed away by surges of water in the Indian Ocean island’s capital city and elsewhere. A motorcyclist died in an accident caused by the flooding, the government said and imposed a curfew. The government issued an order that everyone except emergency and health workers, members of the security services and those requiring medical treatment must return home and remain there. Some people were also being evacuated as the floodwaters caused by Tropical Cyclone Belal threatened houses and other buildings. Schools were closed and hospitals were told to only keep their emergency departments open.

History of Segregation in Austin, TX

In 1928, the city of Austin's government adopted a "Master Plan" and created a district for Blacks east of what is now interstate highway 35. Despite a Supreme Court ruling in 1917 that ruled zoning laws as illegal, Austin came up with a way to segregate the city anyways. The plan took control of property owned by Black individuals and families outside of the new designated “Negro District” and sold it to white land purchasers for pennies on the dollar.

Index:

A) Zoning Areas

B) Stand-Ins

C) Segregated Public Facilities

D) Wilhelmina Delco

E) AISD Mandatory Bussing

F) LaTisha Anderson

G) Conclusion

A) The City Plan legally segregated Blacks/Latinx and Whites. If Blacks or Latinx people were caught living west of what is now 35, the city would shut off the property utilities, forcing Blacks/Latinx to seek electricity and water on the east side. Also, the Home Owners Loan Corporation then deemed majority of the east side hazardous and wouldn't loan money for the purchase of these homes.

What lasting effects could not allowing Black/Latinx individuals and families from purchasing real estate have?

How has East Austin changed since?

How was the government legally able to shut off property utilities?

B) Segregation Stand-In at the Paramount Theatre in Austin. The protest sign reads a quote by Abraham Lincoln.

Why would they quote Abraham Lincoln?

When did Abraham Lincoln make this statement?

What are some other examples of segregation protests since?

C) Segregated Public Facilities- here is a door and sign that reads "WHITE LADIES ONLY" in the Travis County Courthouse were on the doors until 1960

What civil rights movements happened before this?

What civil rights movements happened after this?

What do you think would be most inconvenient about having to use another bathroom somewhere else? How would this affect your life?

D) Wilhemina Delco was a concerned parent, ran for the Austin Independent School District Board of Trustees in 1968. She was the first elected Black individual in a public office in Austin. Delco is passionate about education and is quoted saying, "When you pigeonhole kids as dumb or smart, you cost some the opportunity to move up before they even try." She also is quoted to have a "real beef" with teachers who stereotype and with parents who don't take an active role in their student's education.

If pigeonhole means to classify into a category, what do you think Delco means by her first quote?

In what ways can students be disadvantaged by their parents not taking an active role in their education?

Do you believe that teacher stereotype their students still today?

E) AISD Mandatory Busing- In the early 1970's, the Austin Independent School District was sued as non-complicit with federal rulings. AISD's answer to this problem was to close two all-black schools in East Austin and force those students to all-white schools in other parts of the city. After almost a decade of this solution, a judge decided this didn't cut it. In 1980, the district began busing both white and minority students, integrating all AISD schools.

What Supreme Court ruled that school segregation was unconstitutional and when?

How many years passed after the Supreme Court ruling before all AISD schools were integrated?

From the look of this photo, how do you think these students might have felt being bussed to schools sometimes up to 45 minutes away on a school bus?

F) LaTisha Anderson was one of the students who was bussed to school. She now represents East Austin on the AISD school board. She advocates for students in East Austin and is vocal about creating equal opportunities for all students. She's quoted saying, "When I hear we don’t want 'those kids' to go to 'our' schools, I would have to say let me correct you. Those are our schools, too, because we pay taxes for them, too.”

Who pays taxes to the school districts in Austin and how?

In what ways can schools still be legally segregated?

How does someone run for a seat on the school board and what decisions are members apart of?
