    Here we go again... HALF of DC’s school-aged children live east of the Anacostia and there are no students on this panel that live or attend school there? Respectfully, are you kidding me!?https://twitter.com/edlazere/status/1318255256829124610 …

        More productive questions might be, how were students recruited for this event? What efforts were made to include students from wards 7 & 8?

        Thank you for highlighting this Markus. It's one of the many reasons why you got my vote for DC-Council At Large.

        @edlazere cherry picking for his echo chamber. NOT the qualities of a good representative.

        I can say as someone who voted for both Markus and Ed that I tried to get some of my students to participate from Ward 7 but they were too busy/not interested/or didn't get back to me. So I wouldn't say there was cherry picking here

        Sometimes the accessibility issues we face do make it difficult, and while more can always be done - by myself most of all - I do think it is counterproductive to make assumptions. There are other candidates running who want to maintain mayoral control and further privatize

        Wait...how would someone verify this? Are there rosters of what schools students attend?

        Why can’t you criticize Vincent Orange? This constant race baiting is how Vincent orange wins and we lose paid family leave and get more charters 😩 which VO has promised.

        Thanks, but no thanks. It’s time for a new generation of bold, ethical DC leadership. We’ve had enough of the same old game. https://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/news/loose-lips/article/21136400/former-councilmembers-vincent-orange-and-michael-a-brown-could-face-off-for-atlarge-seat …
