We don’t talk about janitors, cafeteria workers, bus drivers, guidance counselor’s and school administration secretaries enough. They TOO will be at risk when schools start. The pay is already shit for these positions, now we’re asking them to also risk their lives. Unacceptable

imagine if you said “abolish slavery” a bunch of elites were trotted out to say “don’t worry, they don’t actually mean *abolishing* slavery—just REIMAGINING slavery!” but I suppose that’s what they did to create our prison system
