As I earned my California teaching credentials in secondary language arts, secondary history and social studies and elementary education, the pendulum had swung away from direct teaching of spelling-things like lists, pre-tests and tests. It can be a grind, but any experienced teacher can make it work for a range of students. Unfortunately it fell into disfavor and, in my opinion, it was a loss.

To place something in proximity to or juxtaposition with something else.

"the specimen was apposed to X-ray film"

In the case of the 1950s protesters they were placing themselves in juxtaposition with morality and justice.

who are getting so bent out of shape. The people in the photo on the right look more like grandparents. I know my boss and his wife are freaked out about it. They're 64 and 57 and have 3 grandsons. I realize there are some younger Q-pers and Proud Boyz, but I don't personally know anyone under 40 who doesn't recognize that we continue to have a big race problem.

They can't be racist because they don't fit the new definition of racist that they created.
