    More than 60 years ago, a remarkable woman, Linda Brown, demonstrated courage beyond her years as she fought to end legal segregation in American schools. Today, we celebrate her and the right of every student, no matter their race, to access a quality education. #BrownvBoard

        And 60 years later, you support policies that re-segregate our schools via charter schools and vouchers for private and religious schools. We will celebrate when you are no longer in the office of Secretary of Education.

        You promote policies that actively harm students of color & students with special needs. You only care about rich white kids. You’re evil.

        Your idea of quality education is a private school

        Discriminating against students based on their gender is not celebrating the legacy of #BrownvBoard

        Hey, why do you only meet with wealthy white Republican students about gun violence? You don’t give a damn about students of color & the issues they face.

        And you're doing your best to bring back segregation thru your charter/voucher agenda.

        Betsy, you need to go on the offensive, and accomplish something significant. You are 16 months into this administration, and need to become a champion in accomplishments, and NOT the achilles heel. There are other cabinet members who need to pick up the slack as well.#NOSLACKERS

        Glad you support desegregation. Did you know that school choice exacerbates segregation????
