BLM at DMPS

Some photos from work of the February 21, 2017 School Board meeting.

 

As some of the world seems to be turning rightward, the Des Moines School Board has emerged as a public body that is progressive and inclusive. Over the past month they have told immigrants and refugee students that they belong, unanimously approved a "sanctuary" resolution, unanimously approved a contract with teachers in advance of a new anti-public worker law, and last night voiced support for black students and showed it by wearing Black Lives Matter t-shirts.
