Why we embrace @integratenyc's 5 Rs of REAL integration. Integration is not just race and enrollment. It needs to demand equitable distribution of resources, foster relationships across group IDs, implement restorative justice, & hire representative faculty. #RetireSegregation

No one seems to care that there are children who become the casualty when their teachers are poorly prepared. But as long as the data shows that our children are failing, it won’t be the teacher programs who are to blame, it will always be the teachers and the principal.
