Such great information about the equity of community school

Love this podcast on how it explain the problems that are going on in community school such as racism and equity. Everybody should have equal opportunity to have a great education. Racism has to stop and everyone should have a great opportunity to have a great education.

Echo chamber

It’s a great podcast if you're very inclined towards their viewpoints. It doesn’t challenge you to think broadly or independently. We are in an echo chamber where the right only hears what they want to hear and so does the left.
