This is a misrepresentation. <325K families completed the school reopening survey and 2/3 of them chose remote learning. @NYCMayor assumes anyone who didn’t complete the survey wants in-person learning- but we know the survey didn’t reach many multi-lingual & low-income families.

Extremely disappointed to see that my favorite museum in the world, @mattressfactory, is hiring sanitation workers for $10/hour. They pride themselves on being progressive, but won’t even pay a living wage to those they will rely on to keep their museum safe during a pandemic.

Here are more stories that have been omitted from or misrepresented in corporate textbooks. It is important that K-12 students have access to people’s history that exposes & questions roots of inequality & highlights efforts to create a more just society. zinnedproject.org/if-we-knew…

People have argued for decades that $ could be spent for social development, community development, programming, services, supports, education, & you don't need to spend the $ on police. There are 1000s of reports, speeches on it. It is not a radical idea, it's a suppressed one.
