There’s no need for us to revert back to school the way it was - there is room for change, especially if it isn’t forced.

Anyone who authentically wants the choice can do homeschool or enroll in Friendship Online Charter. Virtual as an option (in the absence of a documented IEP with Home/Hospital placement) is not an adequate education. And it is completely infeasible for individual schools to manage virtual options and in person at the same time. More importantly, families need to be pushed back into school instead of being allowed to make a "choice" based on a false belief that schools are unsafe.

Who are you to say it’s a false belief schools are unsafe? Schools have been proven to be unsafe for Black children.

This is absolutely not true. I think the problem here is that you're an idiot.

Yet they are starting to call covid-19 a sickness that will stay in black communities. There is a HUGE difference in who is being infected.

And why is that? Could it have anything to do with their reluctance to get vaccinated?
