How predictable that a statement like this, that enviously hides in the shadow of Trumps barely ambiguous hate speech is now deemed acceptable as a denial, a complete reversal of the early sales pitches of the reformers who claimed, in the same manner as Trump, that only they and they alone could close the race gap and improve the educational outcomes of children of color, thereby ending poverty. Cunningham is as amoral and unethical as it is possible to be, having absolutely no regard for anything other than his own wealth and ambition as he vies for ever higher placement among the court jesters and spokesmodels of reform.

Was baling out Wall Street overly expensive? What is the moral justification for children growing up in poverty in the midst of unfathomable opulence enjoyed by the 1%? I have elementary students in Newark who do not have crayons at home. Cunningham's line of reasoning brings shame on all of us.<br /><br />Abigail Shure<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
