Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins said, “Every child deserves access to a strong educational foundation, and every parent deserves the peace of mind that comes with knowing their child is in a high-quality learning environment. By expanding these opportunities, we are helping our youngest learners build the skills they need to succeed, while providing working families with meaningful support to balance the demands of raising a family and working towards a solid future. This investment in universal Pre-K is a major step forward for children and families across Westchester, and I thank Governor Hochul for her leadership on this.”

Village of Tuckahoe Mayor Cara Kronen said, "Governor Hochul’s investment in universal pre-K will make a meaningful difference for families in the Village of Tuckahoe and across New York State. Expanding pre-K will help ensure that all of our youngest learners, regardless of their families’ income or circumstances, have access to high-quality, nurturing early childhood education while providing essential support to working families"

With all the crazy shit going on nowadays, I love that we still have the wisdom to spend money on children and families.

One of Latin America's most dynamic radical thinker, Raúl Zibechi, and translator/popular educator George Ygarza Quispe are stopping by Riot Act books at noon on April 20th to discuss a new work, Constructing Worlds Otherwise: Societies in Movement and Anticolonial Paths in Latin America. The book surveys the most marginalized voices across Latin America—feminists, the Indigenous, people of African descent, and inhabitants of urban favelas and rural towns—Zibechi introduces the Anglo world to a range of critical perspectives and new forms of struggle in Peru, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, and Bolivia. Constructing Worlds Otherwise comes at a time when the global left—struggling to expand its vision in an era of climate chaos and rising authoritarianism—finds itself at an impasse, desperate to animate and renew its critical imaginary.
