It's Indigenous Peoples Day!
This will hurt EVERYONE!
There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.
America’s children deserve better than this.

My mother participated in the sit-ins in North Carolina as a college student. I grew up steeped in our history. It's very ironic that the inauguration of *that guy* is happening on Dr. King Day. Ancestors. What are you trying to tell us?
