Two of the original creators of this petition, Dirk Tillotson and Zachary Wright, will be on Facebook Live to talk about how the hell the richest country in the world could fail in getting 15 million students adequate internet access for school.
New numbers came out this week to show that even more kids lack a decent internet connection than we previously thought. This fall nearly all districts will continue some form of remote learning, and a third of our students don’t have the access they need to participate.
This issue is fixable, we can do something right now, but we have to keep on the pressure. Watch Episode 1 of this new weekly web series where Dirk will interview experts and activists, educators and students, trying to get to the bottom of how we got here, and how we are going to get out of it.
