Nikole Hannah-Jones w/ a sobering follow-up on her decision yrs ago to enroll her daughter in a poor, majority-Black public school rather than a wealthier, whiter private school. You leave heartbroken for the kids being failed by this grossly unequal system. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/20/m...

“We have seen too many instances of our children being exposed to this radical, sexual material that’s being pushed on us by the teacher’s unions and by the Biden administration.
