Mayor Lightfoot:

 

Please stop the neighborhood crime in Chicago.

One long term solution is to use the “The Science of Reading” to ensure every CPS student can, at the least, read at grade their level. 

Another way to stop the crime is to help low income residents solve their problems as quickly as possible. With one phone or internet search a resident should be connected to a government or nonprofit organization that will help them solve any challenge.

Give Chicago residents a real feeling that The City of Chicago will help them solve their problems.

 

Thank You.

The dirty little secret about education writ large; relative performance throughout life tends to be remarkably static.

Fewer than 10 percent of books feature characters of color or are written by non-white authors. And there's not a lot of variety in those books, she says. There are often historical narratives about slavery or civil rights.

I agree with Dr. Carl Bell; Black people (African Americans) are very relational, as opposed to being transactional.
