The piece is titled, “Cecily Myart-Cruz’s Hostile Takeover of L.A.’s Public Schools.”Here are a few of the more pungent quotes from Myart-Cruz:- “There is no such thing as learning loss. Our kids didn’t lose anything. It’s OK that our babies may not have learned all their times tables. They learned resilience. They learned survival. They learned critical-thinking skills. They know the difference between a riot and a protest. They know the words insurrection and coup.”- “It is not radical to ask for ethnic studies. It is not radical to ask for childcare. It’s not radical to ask for police-free schools so that students don’t feel criminalized. That is not radical; that’s just fact.”- “Education is political. People don’t want to say that, but it is.”- “Reopening schools without…a broader improvement of schools will be unsafe and will only deepen…racial and class inequalities.”- “You can recall the Governor. You can recall the school board. But how are you going to recall me?”
