Morning reading of a chapter in "Rock Your Soul" by bell hooks that mirrors the continued landscape of education in schools. The shock of seeing these programs needs to be followed up with freedom schools (we got that going in St. Petersburg in #Florida, more are coming - it is expensive and hard but doable).

Relying on institutions that enabled segregation with no explicit attempt to decolonize the curriculum across the board (from kindergarten to PhD levels) will do nothing but repeat these behaviors ad infinitum.
