This is just a reminder that poor academic performance is caused by generational poverty, racial segregation, and inequitable resources... not teachers.
in nyc and in need of some N95 masks ? dm us !! we will be getting over 16000 masks for free from @projectn95 before the end of the month. join us in making our communities safer !!!
@NYCMayor, you need to lead with care. This isn't keeping anyone in #NYC safer. It's such a waste of taxpayer funding, which should be diverted to services that would truly make change for the better.
Just witnessed how NYPD is using the Mayor’s new edict on mental health.
Two cops talking to a homeless white man in his 30s in the subway station, and he says “I don’t want to leave.”
The cop says, “well then you’ll go to the hospital.”
Eventually he agrees to leave.
Reminder: Workers with disabilities and tipped workers in 17 states still make an immoral $2.13 minimum wage.
How can anyone support an economic system that lets this happen?
This entire special is great but every man has two minutes and eighteen seconds that they can decide to give to this clip. If you decide that you don’t have two minutes and eighteen seconds for it, that makes you ordinary, and we are not at all surprised.
Years of advocacy to desegregate our schools, disentangle the system from law enforcement and ensure we have a fairer system are going down the toilet bowl. Painful to watch. https://t.co/OalEiHkRac
Thanks to @ericadamsfornyc my 6 year old child's 1st grade teacher- that he & his classmates have already bonded with- has been excessed because of declining enrollment. My son has been in COVID learning conditions since 3K.
He has been crying over the smallest things all day.
.@Menlu_RI Civic space is crucial for sustainable policies. Please lead by example and ensure that @G20org governments are transparent in their proceedings, discuss civic space and make commitments to translate them to action, to #ProtectAndExpandCivicSpace at home and globally!

@AdamKinzinger So being inclusive of visually-impaired and blind people is "insane?" This is not an uncommon practice. Does it ever occur to GOP folks that inclusivity and kindness are good things? Did it ever occur to you to research? Did it ever occur to you to talk to disabled people?
How about ‘the left’ not being able to win elections because your party keeps gerrymandering in racist ways as well as suppressing the votes of Black voters while you repeatedly refused to stop them by opposing both the John Lewis Voting Rights Act and the Freedom to Vote Act?
"Prop your door open due to the climate change crisis we haven't addressed, but also try not to get shot by the teen we gave easy access to an AR-15" is a hell of an ask to people who make less than $40,000 a year.
