Every day the focus of education reform is on competition.
It's gives cover to inequity and injustice in our poorest and most vulnerable public schools.
Every day the focus of education is on turning children into data points.
It gives cover to policies that dehumanize our children and their teachers.
Every day, the focus of education reform steals away art and music from Black, Brown, Special Education, and Poor Children.
It crushes the hopes and dreams of our most vulnerable children.
Every day education reform pushes programs that place the most inexperience teachers with our most vulnerable children.
It crushes hope, and harms children, and makes a mockery of teaching.
Every day we close a local public school to replace it with a for private charter school.
We help destroy a neighborhood.
Every day we let politicians, policy makers, and billionaires tell us poverty doesn't matter.
Our poorest children lose.
Every day we let politicians, policy makers, and billionaires tell us money doesn't matter.
Our poorest children lose.
Every day we let politicians, policy makers, and billionaires call forcing our poorest schools to compete against each other for limited resources.
Our poorest schools, children, and teachers lose.
Every day we remain silent and apathetic.
God sees us.
Every day children are reduced to test scores.
We lose a bit of our souls.
Trust me on this one thing. Children grow up, and they are going to ask us why we let this happen?
It's time to draw our lines in the sand.
Opt Out Parents,
March Teachers,
Preachers Preach,
No more lord.

"Tell me where, Tell me where
Tell me where he can be found
And I'll never turn back no more.
Tell me where he can be found
And I'll never turn back no more.
Down on my knees, down on my knees
Try and love if you please
And I'll never turn back no more.
Try and love if you please
And I'll never turn back no more.
ooh, ooh,
ooh,
ooh, oh, ooh
ooh,
ooh, oh, ooh
No more, no more
No more, no more
And I'll never turn back no more.
