American People Daily reports that the Evanston/Skokie school board District 65 ” has determined that African American kids will have the first option to return to the classroom…..The school board determined that there was a pandemic before COVID-19 ever showed up. They stated that it came in the form of ‘inequity and racism, and classism.’ ”
The school board is lying to black parents by telling them their children might benefit if they started school before the white kids. Nobody knows what will happen when schools reopen during a pandemic. .The degree of risk varies among school districts .
Evanston/Skokie school board’s decision to have black students start school ahead of white students implies the district is misusing black students to determine when it will be safe for white students to return to the classroom. Starting students at different times could lead to segregation because it wouldn’t be fair to the students who start first to have to stop and wait for the others to catch up .
