This was sobering. A student at Little Village High School, who didn't give his name because it's not about him, he said, sits outside the Chicago Public Schools HQ as security looks on. He said it's his way of standing his ground."I hope they see how much I'm invested in this."

I’m concerned this messaging isn’t clear or strong enough. Yes, cloth masks provide the least amount of protection, but, based on the science, the CDC should be strongly recommending higher quality masks, instead of telling the public to choose the mask that is best for them.

School is supposed to be more than a means of restricting the movement of students while their parents work.

Got an email from my kids' CPS high school yesterday about a potential walkout saying students who leave will be given unexcused absence. Told my kids to walkout and don't worry about these arbitrary "penalties".
They walked out today. The scene at the high school was powerful!

When teaching students about Thomas Jefferson, this would be an invaluable primary source document to use.
January 15 marks a tragic anniversary of the day, 195 years ago, when executors of Thomas Jefferson's will sold 130 enslaved people from Monticello. This is how they advertised the devastation they would bring on scores of families.

I think it’s really sweet that one of the student demands is an apology to the teachers and the teachers union.
On Friday, CPS students plan to do a district-wide walkout, demanding better options for learning during the COVID-19 surge.

remember when a certain someone tweeted about kids being upset about wearing masks in Boston schools. well this is actually Boston Public Schools, not the suburbs.
NOW: Students are walking out of their classrooms this morning to protest what they call unsafe learning conditions within the Boston Public School system as the omicron variant continues to spread. Many are calling for remote learning as an option.

New York's eviction moratorium is set to end tomorrow, in the cold during the worst wave of the pandemic, and so hundreds just marched through Manhattan demanding people not be evicted. What did NYPD do? Arrest 18 of them. Here is a very clear example of cops' role in society.

Ruth Wilson Gilmore said, “Racial capitalism, which is to say all capitalism, is not a thing, it’s a relation…and it will continue to depend on racial practice and racial hierarchy no matter what. This is another way of saying we can’t undo racism without undoing capitalism.”

The problem w the media is that it is largely the elite working for the biggest outlets - Ivy grads, the children of wealthy or connected folks etc.

Biden needs to put these Boston students in charge of the administration's COVID response. Seriously. Read this.
