70 yrs after #SCOTUS delivered its landmark decision outlawing school segregation, #BrownVBoardOfEducation ranks as perhaps the court’s most venerated decision….
Most everything else related to the decision…is complex.
Nearly 7/10 Americans say more should be done to integrate schools…a figure that has steadily climbed from 30% in 1973….But a deeper look into the views of both Black & White people shows skepticism about the success of #Brown….
…The #Brown decision focused on the value of mixing children of different races. But for many #integration activists —then & now— the case is about a path to #fair & #equitable educational #resources. Those legal battles cont. Today’s complex views about #schools & integration come amid persistent #segregation that has risen in recent decades,changes in the #legal landscape & complicated dynamics of #education & #race in #America today.

If you have any skills or talents that you can use to try to avert the coming #climatecatastrophe then get off your arse and do something.
Thats not saying "I will fly less and recycle more". Its coming freely together with other people to come up with new ideas and inventions to sort things out. If we can come up with #opensource software like #Linux then we can come up with open source solutions to #software and #hardware problems to help everyone
Its not just #scientists, #engineers and the like. If you are good at say editing #video or #audio you can help make content promoting the other people creating new technology. #Economists, #politicians and more can come up with #equitable and fair means of generating money with the new #technologies. They can also tax the rich motherfuckers until the pips squeak to pay for them too.
“often a tendency to focus on the primary user and #design just for them. Because these #technologies are so deeply embedded in social interactions and are used with others and around others, we often forget these ‘onlookers’ and we’re not designing with them in mind”
“involving non-users is especially key in developing more #equitable tech products and creating more #inclusive experiences” https://spectrum.ieee.org/ar-glasses#AR#augmentedreality#power
Happy Labor Day! Let's take a moment to #celebrate the hard work and dedication of all the laborers who make our world go round. Whether you're a construction worker, a nurse, a teacher, or a stay-at-home parent, your work is essential to our society.
First day on Mastodon, great news to share already: The @EUCouncil
calls for #transparent, #equitable, and #openaccess to scholarly publications, urging a shift towards free dissemination of research:
As the staff writer at #Friends Journal, I would like to use Mastodon to connect with #Quakers with whom I can collaborate to make our magazine more #diverse#equitable and #inclusive, in terms of who we interview and what we cover.
