One of the most powerful moments from today's #CopsOutCPS #Bhangra was when @kdjzuz of @PilsenAlliance pointed out that #SendhilRevuluri lives in a gentrified condo on a gentrified #Pilsen block (photo by @TomSchuba) #PoliceFreeSchools 
After fighting the gentrification of her neighborhood for years @kdjzuz notes, she now has to protest outside of a wealthy new development to get the gentrifier who lives there to agree to keep police out of her school. #CopsOutCPS #PoliceFreeSchools #PilsenNoSeVende
Powerful, painful, and telling. Why do wealthy adults support police in the schools of poor/working youth? Why do folks like #SendhilRevuluri think they can say #BlackLivesMatter without listening to the demands of Black students and youth? #CopsOutCPS #PoliceFreeSchools
#SendhilRevuluri of the CPS board is doing the same thing many politicians, corporations, and ppl of means are doing currently--saying #BlackLivesMatter to appear progressive, while decidedly ignoring the demands of actual Black ppl in their work. #CopsOutCPS #HypocriteSendhil
#SendhilRevuluri voted in June to keep the $33mil contract CPS pays to keep CPD officers patrolling public schools--many of whom have no nurses, counselors, nor librarians. Black and brown students are organizing tirelessly to end this contract. #CopsOutCPS #PoliceFreeSchools
A vote to renew the contract is happening this coming Wednesday. Will #SendhilRevuluri actually make #BlackLivesMatter and vote no--listening to Black students and neighbors--or will he keep using their struggles to perform progressivism while silencing their demands? #CopsOutCPS
