No, this is not an Alice in Wonderland School Me Saturday.

This is to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the landmark education case that was the Brown v Board of Education. This was to end the forced “racial” segregation of the black students and the white students.

This has been hailed as the start of school desegregation. And is known as a very good thing (literary reference).

Now, some people definitely thought this was a bad thing. They rioted and threw several fits over the very idea that the schools be desegregated.

They are still fighting. In my home state of North Carolina, the super majority legislature decided that it wasn’t fair that wealthy parents have to pay the entire cost of educating their precious children in a private school and they decided to start a school voucher program that does allow some disadvantaged students to attend a private school but mostly is a give away to the wealthy. After all the school voucher program, which is already out of money and holding their hand out for more, doesn’t cover all the cost of the private school. The parents of those who win have to pony up the rest.

It does further the interest in undermining public education which has been on the wishlist of those who don’t like public education. You know, the ones with the test scores, and the oversight. Especially the oversight.

I wonder how that will go.

As I tell my fellow operating room folks there is a reason for a policy and a rule. This does away will all the rules. Except for the ones that you can break with impunity because your daddy or mommy has the money to buy you out of whatever scrape you find yourself in.

I also wonder what Supreme Court Justice Earl Warren would make of the rollback of our rights.

I bet he would be disappointed in the current Supreme Court.

With their Originalism and their desire to control women.

By what means necessary. After all, have to ensure the continuation of the White Male Race, even if they have to steal a uterus to do so.

Apparently this School Me Saturday was School Me Saturday and Top of Mind Tuesday all in one.

Oops.

Brown v. Board of Education happened 21 years before I was born. The effects have been widespread and those who dislike it have been determined to undermine it.

Same shit, different decade.
