this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

Link below to the chapter on Alison Knowles, "The Identical Lunch" (late 1960s-early 1970s) in the #scoresproject. The date is fuzzy because Knowles RETROACTIVELY designated her habitual lunch order as a performance work. That's not usually how a score works!
