CLICK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=905qoawcBuo [5:32] to hear an insane elected public official insist that she has a right to bar James O’Keefe from video recording a public meeting that is simultaneously being broadcast over Zoom where anyone can record it. While she was grumping at James, somebody else was scurrying off to call the cops on him.
And get a load of that superintendent’s $237,000/year salary! I looked up his bio. His first six years in education, he taught social studies. Then he was an assistant principal, then principal at various middle schools for ten years. And now he makes a quarter of a million dollars as superintendent of the Livingston Public Schools?! I’m guessing he also has a nifty benefits package with vacations, health plan, and pension. Nice “work” if you can get it.
His current #1 priority is wasting tax dollars on a “diversity audit” of the district aimed at “enhancing inclusiveness, cultural awareness, anti-racism and acceptance of individual differences through mandated curricular programming, extracurricular programming, and district operations.” Given that he’s a middle aged white male, I’m thinking he had better watch his back … unless “fat and overpaid” makes him a protected minority. Maybe he can put on a dress …
I looked for the auditing company, a2z equity coaching, on the internet. They claim to be “leaders” in their field. Their Facebook page has zero followers, zero likes, and nearly zero content. It does direct one to their web page, which actually does have zero content. Their Instagram page has zero posts and 41 followers. The company appears to be comprised of two Black women, Shelley Zion, Ph.D., and Janelle Alexander, Ph.D. Below are blurbs from their LinkedIn bios.
“Dr. Shelley Zion is CEO and Executive Coach at a2z Equity Coaching, Professor of Urban Education at Rowan University, and the Executive Director of the PEER (Partnerships for Educational Equity & Research) Lab. … Her research is situated within a framework of sociopolitical development, informed by a range of critical theoretical perspectives, and advanced by an understanding of the nature of both individual and systemic change. This framework requires that to impact a transformation of social systems towards goals of equity and social justice, we must work to disrupt dominant ideologies by creating spaces in which people begin to develop a critical understanding of the cultural, political, economic, and other institutional forces that perpetuate systems of privilege and oppression.” Blah blah Marxist blah.
“Dr. Janelle Alexander is an a2z Equity Coach, Consultant, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging Professional, Researcher, Leadership Developer, Community Builder & Connector, and Thought Partner. … Dr. Alexander brings a wealth of experience in writing and securing government grants to obtain funding. … As a polished public speaker and instructor, Dr. Alexander excels in relating effectively to individuals from diverse backgrounds and at all levels, fostering a sense of community and connection.” So … good at sucking at the government’s teat and spinning lies so they sound warm and cozy.
