Ah ha! Thank you trustees @aratisingh and Geronimo Rodriguez for bringing #equity into the discussion. @ClaireMcInerny @melissataboada @aratisingh @PTAnderson70 @2WardEquity @UnionmanTX

[Ken Zarifis @KenZEdAustin]

At @KUT live discussion with @AustinISD and we are 43 minutes in and I am still waiting to hear about EQUITY. "All" is not equity. @aratisingh @AISDSupt @ClaireMcInerny @PTAnderson70

[Angela M. Ward, PhD (she/her) @2WardEquity]

Absolutely @Ready4rigor Don’t tell me you’re woke & “understand” the plight of students who are most marginalized in our schools. Show me your equity walk in curricular decisions that combat worksheets and test prep, pedagogy that requires students to question you #AntiRacistEd

[Ken Zarifis @KenZEdAustin]

.@rweingarten isn't it disgusting when 1%ers like DeVos and Trump use every loopholes that politicians create for them to not pay taxes, yet they deny hard working teachers and school employees relief from overwhelming student loans? #hypocrites

When you like your job, you stick with it. The struggle is real and it continues.

I learned in the @AustinChronicle that @KenZEdAustin has been doing worker organizing for 18 centuries. https://t.co/JS2xUWkjh1

[Ken Zarifis @KenZEdAustin]

We will address this publicly next week. Trust is the foundation for a productive relationship. We don't believe AISD PD demonstrated this when then confiscated my phone for 2 days #notmyphone .@rweingarten @RepMaryGonzalez @MayorAdler @GinaForAustin @melissataboada @CeliaIsrael

[Austin Sanders @daustinsanders]

and in other AISD news, district cops confiscated the phone of union prez @KenZEdAustin over the weekend as part of an investigation into an incident that occurred at the Aug. 26 school board meeting.

@MontseTXAFLCIO @KendallGPace @EdAustin_TX @AFLCIO @AFTunion @TexasAFT @AustinISD @KenZEdAustin I love Education Austin and am proud of their advocacy for students, teachers, para-professionals and the entire school community. The raises were a huge victory and will go far to retain our best teachers and not lose them to the ‘burbs.

[Ken Zarifis @KenZEdAustin]

Thank you @ssteven2. We are proud of our members' hard work. We are 1 of 4 tx districts that have "consultation." Over 110 agreements have been signed during our 21 year history affecting pay, benefits and workplace conditions. @rweingarten @UnionmanTX @NoelCandelaria

@EdAustin_TX stands in solidarity with 20,000 CWA members as they strike against @ATandTcompany and their unfair labor practices. #RepectNow #unionproud

[Ken Zarifis @KenZEdAustin]

If @HoustonISD is cutting classified employees workers benefits on the heels of a pay raise that @wthomas6315 (local union) fought for, it's RETALIATION against the most vulnerable workers. @_ericblanc .@MontseTXAFLCIO @KarenInATX_ .@rweingarten @melissataboada @RickTxAFLCIO

[Daniel Santos @mr_dsantos]

@wthomas6315 This is a slap in the face to our workers and their families. It’s shameful. #HISD

There is no liberty, justice, or an American Dream while children and their families seeking refuge are caged like animals. There is no independence as long as American justice is driven by American racism to cage black men and boys. #no4thofjuly #independancelies #americanlies
