I stand with this movement in complete support. I do not support cops in CPS schools. Even if cops have well intentions, placing cops in schools perpetuates the system to operate as it it is intended: against children of color and fueling the school to prison pipeline. Children need resources such as social workers, mental health workers, nurses, Tutors, mental health therapists, art therapists. Cops do not exist in predominantly white schools. They only exist to hurt children. I personally volunteer with children at the South side help center. They require an unbiased listening ear, tutoring, hugs and the same nourishment Chicago gives white children. The black community is beautiful. It is time we start showing this in policy change and our actions to bring forth resources. Cops create divisions, anger, violence, and death. To decrease crime we need to fuel resources from the bottom up. Starting with Black children. They DESERVE BETTER AND SO MUCH MORE. REMOVE COPS, SAVE CHILDREN. #BLM #insolidarity
Rachel Valentino thank you for stopping by and commenting, and thank you especially for your work with Chicago's children. I think you're absolutely right about how to decrease crime in our city and it is time, it is long past time, to do so.
