Fact: Childhood is finite.

Kids won’t get a re-do on almost two years of diluted education, foregone rites of passage, missed opportunities, & a generally muted existence.

The brunt of the burden will fall on kids least equipped to bear it: the poor, the abused, the disabled.

[Karol Markowicz @karol]

New York is removing kids from public life. That’s fine, right? Could not possibly have any adverse consequences, I’m sure? My column in Wednesday’s @nypost https://t.co/Oy1EG93xKe

@Err2119 @UFT @NYCSchools @DOEChancellor @NYCMayorsOffice This is very true. You want somethig done right, sometimes you need to do it yourselves

[ylrac @ylrac_m]

We kept hearing from the city that MS&HS had returned to normal. We kept seeing and hearing from families, that that wasn't the case. So we asked 400 families. Teaser: Kids are not getting a normal education. https://t.co/yoCcByGmHm

Well "if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself". The DOE keeps saying MS and HS are open. They won't supply the data to back it up. We know they are not. NYC ms & hs caregivers, please fill out this quick survey. https://t.co/2G9i7Lrdrq

Today was important. The first hand stories are important. The well being of children, mental, emotional, and educational is important.

Thank you to @Harlem__Jets for co-hosting today’s rally to #KeepNYCSchoolsOpen and #LetThemPlay!

@MrHarlemJets kicked off today’s rally by pointing out disparities between what public schoolkids & private schoolers experienced this year in NYC.

He could see the cost to kids.

NYC mayoral candidate @KGforNYC gets it. NYC students deserve in person education. Now. Not just in September, but now. #KeepNYCSchoolsOpen #LetThemPlay

[ylrac @ylrac_m]

Sometimes, despite obstacles and ups and downs, you still know you are on the right side of history. We've done so much, yet there is so much more to fight for. Glad to be side by side with these women. @MiaEG_PD @ElgaCastro @daniela127 #KeepNYCSchoolsOpen

[Kathryn Garcia @KGforNYC]

I was so glad to join parents last night for this critical conversation on how we will fully reopen our schools and deliver a real plan for September. Kids need to get back in the classroom & we know we can do it safely. Thank you @KeepNYCSchools1 for hosting. #keepNYCschoolsopen

Sheesh.

[ylrac @ylrac_m]

Tonight! There are so many answered questions about school in the fall. Hoping to get some answers from these mayoral candidates. #KeepNYCSchoolsOpen

[daniela @daniela__127]

TONIGHT!!! See you all there!!

[ylrac @ylrac_m]

I found this in my Kindergartener's backpack today. ❤ This makes the fight worth it. #KeepNYCSchoolsOpen

This new book, (out today!) Offers actionable visions for immigration policies. We need this now.

[ylrac @ylrac_m]

This is really happening. It is not hypothetical. I've stayed out of a lot of our #KeepNYCSchoolsOpen tweeting, for a number of reasons. But this. This I find inexcusable.

[daniela @daniela__127]

Do you think the PRESS would be interested in a story about how a person with a personal vendetta against #keepnycschoolsopen in general, and me in particular, is calling Black and brown supporters of #openschools to encourage them not to attend our rally on Saturday?

[ylrac @ylrac_m]

Also, did not fact check this, but I like it.

@ebottcher This Canada one is crazy too , 50% of Canada lives below that red line

[ylrac @ylrac_m]

Did not fact check this, but I like it.

[Erik Bottcher @ebottcher]

Whoa.

[Dorian Warren @dorianwarren]

We celebrate "guilty on all charges." But as #DerekChauvin’s trial comes to a close, let’s not forget that there can be no true justice for #GeorgeFloyd as long as police and white vigilantes continue to steal Black lives with impunity.
