Crazy Rich Asians? Not just a movie. From the NY Times:
But that is not a full picture of the Asian-American experience. They are now the most economically divided racial or ethnic group in the country, displacing African-Americans, according to a new Pew Research Center analysis of United States Census Bureau data. The chart below shows that income inequality among Asian-Americans has nearly doubled from 1970 to 2016.
While rich Asians have become the highest-earning group in the nation, income growth among poor Asians has largely stagnated. This trend mirrors that of other racial groups, though income inequality has accelerated fastest among Asians.
Asian immigrants make up a less monolithic group than they once did. In 1970, Asian immigrants came mostly from East Asia, but South Asian immigrants are fueling the growth that makes Asian-Americans the fastest-expanding group in the country, said Ms. Lee, the Columbia University sociologist.
Frustrated by the continued underfunding of our schools and all the legislators patting themselves on the back for a job still left undone? Here’s what y’all can do:Here's a job for your teenage - being a teenager in the know.
(1) write letters to the editor of your local paper saying you want your local teachers to receive raises in order to attract and retain educators,
(2) e-mail and call your legislator and tell them how your local public schools and crucial elements of education (special education, librarians, nurses, counselors, etc) are still underfunded. Demand that the legislators pass new, equitable, and sustainable revenue to support public schools and other crucial services,
(3) talk to your friends and neighbors about how the legislature caused this problem and that our legislators need to solve it ASAP, post on your personal social media, and otherwise spotlight the situation, and
(4) help us! WPD is releasing our candidate questionnaire this week. We would love your help contacting candidates and asking them to please respond to the questions.

Superintendent Chris Reykdal's messaging on Special Education funding.“Amber’s legacy,” said Perry A. Zirkel, professor emeritus of education and law at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania, “amounted to a major step forward for students with disabilities generally and the mission of the public schools altogether.”Steven Aleman, a staff lawyer with Disability Rights Texas — which under an earlier name, Advocacy Inc., argued the case before the Supreme Court — described the suit as “one of the landmark special education cases in this nation and an enormous precedent in providing access to public schools for students with disabilities.”
