I'll end by showing you this painting by Ikeda Manabu. It became a guiding light two years into the writing process when I was feeling overwhelmed by the script, feeling worthless and stupid for trying to tackle something so big.

Proud of the OAK team and this wonderful gathering we facilitated last night 🥰. Love to see so much Oakland pride in a room.

The spending on consultants and administration is so unaccountable — “a black hole” — that it was featured in a grand jury investigation in 2018. OUSD gets more money per student than almost any district, and spends less money on teachers 🤔

Oakland School Board is planning to close 8 majority black schools to “save money.” But last time they closed schools, it *cost* the district money. Why doesn’t OUSD look at their $30million/year consultant spend instead? sfgate.com/education/arti…

Follow the money…into the “dark hole”. Some really diligent reporting here, offering some insights into the financial context of OUSDs proposed closure of black and brown community schools

Of the top 10 OUSD schools with the highest Black student enrollment percentages, half are at risk of closure: Community Day School, Grass Valley Elementary, Prescott Elementary, Parker K–8, and Carl B. Munck Elementary (all 50-70% Black, while OUSD overall is 22% Black) #oakedu

My latest: The OUSD school board seems poised to greenlight changes that will impact thousands of students, families, teachers, and staff over the next two years in an effort to balance the budget. #oakedu oaklandside.org/2022/02/01/ous…

the district is planning to close the elementary school near me in west oakland - despite it serving some of the most in-need populations and delivering great results (#1 in district for student improvement). if you're in oakland, come walk in protest with us!

@koxinga21 Yeah but what about this fridge situation?

@timcourtney You can still get a ticket but you just would then have to go to a police station within a few months to have the ticket corrected with proof of registration. Although the receipt is probably good enough to prevent the ticket
