Hazel M. Dukes, President of the NAACP’s New York State Conference,
released the following statement tonight slamming the
federal lawsuit filed by Success Academy against Mayor de Blasio’s recent reversal of
three co-locations:
“This
lawsuit is an outrageous and insulting attempt by Wall Street hedge fund
managers to hijack the language of civil rights in their shameless political
attack on Bill de Blasio. It is an
affront to all public school parents in New York City. There is no stronger champion for the civil
rights of our kids than Mayor De Blasio. The entire civil rights community stands with him in his effort to
strike a fair balance between charter schools and neighborhood schools,” Dukes
said.
Editors Note:
We wonder how former New York City Council Education Committee Chair Eva "General" Moskowitz is having such success with some New York City public school children who are attending the charter schools that she now runs when she could not use this magic when she was chair of the City Council Education Committee for all the children of New York City public schools.
Come on Eva "What's your secret"?
