I forgot to post about our Policy Talk. It was a full house with a lot of engagement. When we submitted our proposal, who knew we’d be discussing this agenda amidst such chaos. Interested in school funding + racial segregation? Join the research efforts. #AEFP2025 www.brownspromise.org/resources

Our nation’s segregated school systems flout the ruling of Brown v Board and deny children the right to a good education. And it’s a policy choice, not an accident. @aryamerikaner.bsky.social and I discuss what to do about it. Listen, follow and spread the word!

NEW Justice By Design w/ Kimberly Atkins Stohr “Schools: Still Separate & Unequal” w/ Ary Amerikaner @kimberlyeatkins.bsky.social & @aryamerikaner.bsky.social, co-founder of Brown's Promise, on school segregation, Brown v. Board of Education, Milliken v. Bradley. youtu.be/KrdrZ3SIREk

“The thing that I think is most important for educators and administrators on the ground is to not take the bait.” - @aryamerikaner.bsky.social www.chalkbeat.org/2025/02/03/t... #edusky

EO on "indoctrination" says will be implemented consistent w/ law. Current law: fed. gov can’t "exercise any direction, supervision, or control over the curriculum, program of instruction, administration, or personnel of any educational institution, school, or school system” 20 USC Sec. 1232(a)

From me: it’s time our lawmakers get serious about support for low-income students and it starts with learning to share www.ajc.com/education/ge...

My second "good news" post of the day! HUGE sigh of relief here at Brown's Promise. Event his SCOTUS agrees that school districts can use race-neutral policies to advance student diversity. www.cnn.com/2024/12/09/p...

Oh hey home state! Love to see it when West Virginia gets something right and gets some national credit for it

My first ever podcast! It was fun to do, esp with Saba! But I can’t bring myself to listen - way too much of my own voice.

Vouchers: a tool of segregation. www.propublica.org/article/miss...

Well, seems approproate for my first post! A reminder that while DeVos / McMahon tax credit schemes won’t help people who can’t afford private school already, they sure will help big corporations. www.edweek.org/policy-polit...
