Toxic Equity and the CA Gov (sort of) Supports Ethnic Studies - Passing Period #105
Manage episode 375964386 series 2083309
This Week: An elementary school in Florida puts all the Black kids in an assembly to talk about the problem with their data, start a competition to get test scores up, and win McDonalds. How could this go wrong? It’s a fitting example of what can happen when the pressure to close equity gaps in test scores meets race-neutral policies absent any historical context on how we got here in the first place. Also, the California Gov’s administration issues a letter ostensibly in defense of the coming Ethnic Studies requirement, but is it a capitulation to right wing extremists?
