Analyzing PuertoRico's incoming governor's pubic policy on education. First it cites a little plagiarized sentence I wrote in 2012, again, without credit.
"Educacion sirve de punto de lanza para el desarrollo social y economico del pueblo". "Eperienza educativa donde nuestros jovenes se desenvuelvan en las destresas... a ser productivos y ciudadanos de pensamiento critico e independiente".
Includes the often said "decentralizing". This would mean a break in PuertoRico as an SEA/LEA that would mean a huge leap, it requires @usedgov approval. And a technology and data management overhaul (E-rate), funds received under my administration, frozen again bc mismanagement
#DisabilityTwitter #Madison disabled students need your help. Please spread the word & if you have expertise or clout also email the school board. Madison plans to buy a multi-million dollar facility to house (segregate) “alternative” students, aka disabled students, esp BIPOC.
Let @MMSDschools know that disabled students deserve to be integrated & included not isolated & incarcerated. This is the same district where a black disabled girl’s braids were ripped out & a black disabled teen was pinned & punched by 3 police officers. That’s just THIS YEAR!
Wtf?! This goes against the tenets of #disability studies, by critiquing #neurodiversity & making claims like “disability is not a ‘gift’ that anyone w/ an acute moral sense would give, celebrate, or fail to try to change in the direction of greater ability & less disability.”

Maybe I’m extra salty this AM but I feel compelled to respond. Over HALF of the citations in this article are back to articles published by the lead author. How is that even permissible? How is this original research or thinking & not just inflammatory self-promotional BS?
