Now tell me again why you can’t go IB if IPL is the most important thing for you

we’re IB and I know people who returned to IB from charters to get in person seats. I’m not sure what your point is. My point is that the primary equity issue right now is getting all kids back into the classroom.

This is a definition of equality, not equity. Try again.

it is neither equitable nor equal for black kids to be segregated into a form of education (virtual) that **everyone knows** is worse.

I swear, you people trying to leverage racial justice talk to defend school closures are just the worst.

The point the poster was making is that DC public schools are not funded equitably. All they were asking was that you bring this same energy to that fight as the reopening. But thanks for the you peopling

DP. how are DC schools not funded equitably?

HSA’s paying for extra things is just one glaring example.

I think there is a difference and should be differentiated that there are people who are anti-vax and those that are vaccine hesitant. I understand that Blacks are vaccine hesitant. It’s different than privileged higher socioeconomic anti-vax’ers who relay on others creating herd immunity. For Blacks there’s a history of mistreatment when it comes to medical trials. There’s a reason for the mistrust in the medical industry and the institutions. For instance, look at the clinical trials for COVID vaccine in children. 85% white, 11% Hispanic and about 5% Black. Another layer of complexity is access to the vaccines. I bring all this up because Charters serve a larger percentage of Blacks. So they’re hesitancy seems founded. It’s unfortunate but I understand.

right, let’s compound the historic inequities of Tuskeegee by keeping black kids out of school. I’ve been saying this all along, but the school closure advocates were totally unconscionable in exploiting black fears by exaggerating the danger of open schools. And now here is the result - black families are scared to return, against all evidence. instead of acting like that fear is extrinsic, schools need to own that they created it and they need to address if now.

Do you mean PTAs?

Look. You are just desperately clawing at any excuse you can to avoid accountability. Until schools are reopened you have nothing to stand on when you claim there are other “fights” that need more attention.

Beacuse you're purposefully creating a tangent.

Read the article and if you need to beat this other dead horse some more, create yet another thread on it.

I told you to stfu because I don’t want to listen one more second to someone exploiting anti-racism to keep schools closed. It’s truly dark. The ONLY thing anyone who actually cares about school equity should be focused on is getting schools opened.

she’s not only creating a tangent - she’s (willfully?) ignoring the plank in her own eye. the biggest blow to school equity this century is going to be school closures in urban districts. nothing else even comes close.

My favorite DCUM conspiracy theory! 15 WOTP parents yelling at a message board = the downfall of the urban school system. Miss me with enrollment being down this year; Ward 3 is literally building extra schools to deal with overcrowding

Kids LITERALLY are not in school. Homeless kids. Black kids. Disabled kids. ELL kids. That’s literally still happening this morning - meanwhile bars, restaurants and gyms are opened at full capacity. Only willful ignorance could deny the enormity of this. At a minimum it completely and totally destroys any claim you may make that you have some kind of moral high ground in the school equity fight. But sure, tell me again how rich PTAs are really the problem compared to DC schools being literally unable to get kids into the classroom. Also tell me again how I’m just a “nice white parent” and shouldn’t say anything about the situation, because the people with the true moral authority are the ones keeping black kids out of the classroom.

I think there is a difference and should be differentiated that there are people who are anti-vax and those that are vaccine hesitant. I understand that Blacks are vaccine hesitant. It’s different than privileged higher socioeconomic anti-vax’ers who relay on others creating herd immunity. For Blacks there’s a history of mistreatment when it comes to medical trials. There’s a reason for the mistrust in the medical industry and the institutions. For instance, look at the clinical trials for COVID vaccine in children. 85% white, 11% Hispanic and about 5% Black. Another layer of complexity is access to the vaccines. I bring all this up because Charters serve a larger percentage of Blacks. So they’re hesitancy seems founded. It’s unfortunate but I understand.

This argument is outdated by several months. At this point it's something else is, it's vaccine refusal akin to all the white republicans that equally refuse.

I agree. But, I also think there are pockets of people in DC who need more outreach and support to getting vaxxed. Reopening schools and offering vaccines at each school would be a big help.
