1/This is complete horsesh*t. Has he seen the ridiculous lines in low-income minority neighborhoods to enter the lottery process for a charter school perceived to be decent? No one fights harder & receives more resistance to seeking quality education for their kids than poor POC https://twitter.com/rzstprogramming/status/1198623649990946817

2/ Remember Tanya McDowell or Kelly Williams Bolar? Charged criminally for trying to send their kids to better schools. It’s easy for people like Pete who were born on 3rd base but act like they hit a home run, to pathologize poor POC, than to acknowledge structural inequality.

3/The quality of education kids have access to depends on their zip code. Given redlining & even modern housing discrimination, poor children of color never have a shot at receiving equal access to good schools. So @PeteButtigieg pls miss me with this. https://apnews.com/1d856cd98d4c491e8443576b3a817740

4/ Poor Black kids in Detroit are fighting in court to have judge to say they have a constitutional right to attend schools that don’t churn out illiterate students. If you want to talk about poor POC & education @PeteButtigieg talk about this. https://chalkbeat.org/posts/detroit/2019/10/24/right-to-literacy-oral-arguments/
