In repudiating the use of public money to fund vouchers for enrollment in white academies in the wake of “Brown v. Board," Oliver Hill, the great NAACP attorney, said, “No one in a democratic society has a right to have his private prejudices financed at public expense.” 1/2

@Mad_Science_Guy @Tyler_A_Harper Jesse, thank you for the endorsement. Vouchers have indeed gained traction. I’ll be giving a talk about such traction, incidentally, next Saturday at the annual summit of the Education Writers Association, taking place in Las Vegas, of all places.

When she’s right she’s right. Crazy shit that happens at private high schools and colleges serves as a pretext for anti-public education goons to strip mine education for the poor, which—more than culture warring— was the goal all along. Sticking it to the libs is just a bonus.
Ida Bae Wells@nhannahjones

This push for vouchers is what happens when we started introducing the terms of the market into public education and treating common schools as a consumer good instead of a public good. The attacks on “CRT” always had as an end game the delegitimization of public schools in order to funnel public funds into private hands.

This funding of religious education comes w/out the regulation central to European voucher systems, I maintain in this article, and more fundamentally, erodes the common ground public schools, however imperfectly, have long afforded this country. @DianeRavitch @pasi_sahlberg

@douglasharris99 Doug, I'm in Turku, Finland, and saw a poster two days ago at the local hockey arena for a Kenny Rogers concert in 1999. Country has a following here, too.
