A friend who works
at Columbia University
explained last night
that the maintenance staff
security, cleaners
everyone in the service industry
mostly people of color
black and brown
aren’t eligible for free
tuition the way
other people working there are
how unfair that is
actually racist and I wonder
the way I have forever
why the school
wouldn’t fix such a large
and obvious problem
and what they think
education means.
Thanks for the heads up on this one..outrageous!
After all this time... I'm glad you're shining a light on this.
