Klar, so ging es im ganzen Land oberhalb der massenmedialen Wahrnehmungsschwelle: Verschämt war und ist von „#Eventszene“ die Rede, wobei der eine oder die andere #Grüne wohl im Hinterkopf hat, dass das nicht beim Namen zu nennende Kind (neu)migrantische Jugend ist.
Spiegelverkehrt kam das auch von sonst dankenswert radikal antirassistischen und migrantischen Kreisen: In Stuttgart wurde sich nach deren Ansicht gegen #racialprofiling und strukturellen #Rassismus gewehrt.Aber wie wäre es, wir beginnen die Diskussion erst einmal mit dem Anlass?
Striking chart from @TheIFS on the families - poorest to richest - that would choose to send their children back to school.
We know poorer children are losing out most on education, and poorer families have less space, so you might think this chart is surprising?

The survey doesn't gather data on *why* families answer thus. But the answers should inform what is already the major Left/Right faultline on the pandemic response: how much 'choice' should we give individuals about how to respond to coronavirus risks?
I suspect two things are going on.
One is that those who experience their socio economic environment - employer, the State, their bank, healthcare - as supportive and responsive feel more relaxed about risks because they feel themselves to have more ability to ride them.

It was not easy cutting down that speech because every word was golden, so here's the slightly more complete version. #CheckYourPrivilege
I've sat on that footage for almost a year. I was hoping to film a higher quality version of it at some point, but last night I tweeted this and thought..."Wait... Jess said this way better... The world needs to know!"
