💔UTTERLY HEARTBREAKING: At some L.A. schools 1 in 3 students are testing positive for COVID-19. And of course schools in poorer neighborhoods are being ravaged while those in more wealthy ones doing much better https://t.co/zJovpEUpfA @howardblume @MelissaGomez004 @johnmyers

“The schools decided what they’re going to do, and the parents are in a panic.” Parents who can't work from home are struggling with a lack of child care, report @olgakhazan and @AdamHSays: https://t.co/RXJjPvnTgO

With @LizAnanat, I have been following service workers with young children since before the COVID-19 crisis. The post-crisis picture is grim, but there are policies that could help.

I learned a new, devastating word on Twitter recently: necropolitics. The shadow of our racialized history is long, & the line between "essential" and "sacrificial" workers is thin. Who benefits and who loses from hastening the reopening of the economy? https://t.co/iEQpiHOBIt

As Coronavirus Deepens Inequality, Inequality Worsens Its Spread—it’s both #incomeinequality and #racialinequality. https://t.co/npUnx0kBtc

[Young Child Facts @youngchildfacts]

The early childhood field has a critical role to play in assuring more economic and racial equity, both in the classrooms with children, and in the hearing and board rooms with policymakers. #equityinECE https://t.co/MbXPMyPj8c via @CtrSocialPolicy

Productive family partnerships in early learning have clear ties to long-term cognitive, academic, and social-emotional benefits for children, particularly for children and families of color from low-income communities. #EquityinECE https://t.co/PtKiWFyE2X via @NewAmericaEd

Qs of “who gets a COVID-19 test and who does not, who gets hospitalized and who does not, and whose symptoms are taken seriously and whose are not.“

Families are being devastated by this virus.

We have to ramp up testing and we must expand data collection to address the disparities in testing and treatment of COVID-19 in communities of color—and we need to do it now.
