After decades of exclusion, many working-class people of color are attaining the suburban dream. But the debt racked up by the wealthy residents who came before them means new arrivals are confronting decaying suburbs. https://t.co/fBmSk59EUu

Honored to share #DISILLUSIONED with the Coalition for Educational Equity, humbled by the work of the K-12 equity leaders in the room. The stories youve heard about the threats these educators have endured are horrifying. The stories you havent yet heard are so much worse.
