LAUSD

I've written before about Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho and the courageous administrators and staff who turned away ICE body snatchers in April. 

That seems like forever ago now as the Trump administration has turned the intimidation up to 11 and, in addition to countless other outrages, has stationed "federal vans" within blocks of schools in an apparent effort to terrorize students and their families into self-disappearing before ICE does it for them.

Against this backdrop of military troops in the streets and new threats seemingly every day coming from the regime, it takes courage to stand up to bullies wielding state power. 

I may disagree with Supt. Carvalho over other aspects of public education, but on this most important element, we agree entirely.

Everybody has the chance to do the right thing. Not everybody will. This is the right thing.
