WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:04.560
WHAT IF I’M NOT DOING ENOUGH TO

00:04.562 --> 00:06.435
HELP MY CHILD SUCCEED?

00:06.436 --> 00:07.773
ALL THOSE QUESTIONS AND SELF

00:07.775 --> 00:08.060
DOUBT.

00:08.094 --> 00:09.682
PRESIDENT TRUMP MAY NOT THINK

00:09.683 --> 00:10.993
THIS IS A NATIONAL EMERGENCY,

00:10.995 --> 00:13.038
BUT I THINK GOING BACK TO SCHOOL

00:13.039 --> 00:14.904
FOR MILLIONS OF CHILDREN AND THE

00:14.905 --> 00:16.980
IMPACTS ON THEIR FAMILIES AND

00:16.981 --> 00:18.351
THE COMMUNITY IS A NATIONAL
EMERGENCY.

00:18.386 --> 00:24.908
I BELIEVE THAT’S WHAT IT IS.

00:24.942 --> 00:27.266
PROTECTING OUR STUDENTS,

00:27.267 --> 00:29.592
EDUCATORS, COMMUNITIES, GETTING

00:29.594 --> 00:31.719
OUR SCHOOLS OPEN SAFELY AND

00:31.720 --> 00:32.371
EFFECTIVELY.

00:32.372 --> 00:34.264
THIS IS A NATIONAL EMERGENCY.

00:34.299 --> 00:35.583
PRESIDENT TRUMP STILL DOESN’T

00:35.584 --> 00:38.504
HAVE ANY REAL PLAN FOR HOW TO

00:38.506 --> 00:40.195
OPEN OUR SCHOOLS SAFELY.

00:40.230 --> 00:42.892
NO REAL PLAN FOR HOW TO HELP

00:42.894 --> 00:44.303
PARENTS FEEL SECURE FOR THEIR

00:44.305 --> 00:45.574
CHILDREN.

00:45.575 --> 00:48.267
HE’S OFFERING NOTHING BUT

00:48.268 --> 00:51.049
FAILURE AND DELUSIONS FROM THE

00:51.051 --> 00:53.029
START TO FINISH TO THE AMERICAN

00:53.030 --> 00:54.780
FAMILIES AND OUR CHILDREN ARE

00:54.781 --> 00:55.910
PAYING THE PRICE FOR HIS

00:55.911 --> 00:56.457
FAILURES.

00:56.458 --> 00:58.381
FAILURE TO TAKE THIS VIRUS

00:58.415 --> 01:00.390
SERIOUSLY EARLY ON IN JANUARY

01:00.425 --> 01:02.061
AND FEBRUARY, AND IT SPREAD

01:02.096 --> 01:02.996
AROUND THE GLOBE.

01:03.030 --> 01:04.442
FAIL YOUR TO TAKE STEPS WE

01:04.477 --> 01:06.648
NEEDED BACK IN MARCH AND APRIL

01:06.650 --> 01:09.355
TO GET THIS PANDEMIC UNDER

01:09.389 --> 01:11.389
CONTROL, TO INSTITUTE WIDESPREAD

01:11.390 --> 01:13.098
TESTING AND TRACING TO CONTROL

01:13.100 --> 01:14.471
THE SPREAD.

01:14.505 --> 01:16.716
FAILURE TO PROVIDE CLEAR,

01:16.717 --> 01:18.093
NATIONAL, SCIENCE-BASED

01:18.127 --> 01:20.142
GUIDELINES TO STATE AND LOCAL

01:20.143 --> 01:23.415
AUTHORITIES, AND FAILURE TO

01:23.416 --> 01:24.918
MODEL EVEN BASIC RESPONSIBILITY

01:24.952 --> 01:26.539
LIKE SOCIAL DISTANCING AND

01:26.573 --> 01:29.127
WEARING A MASK AND FAILURE TO

01:29.162 --> 01:30.944
MAKE SURE EDUCATORS AND

01:30.978 --> 01:32.062
ADMINISTRATORS HAVE THE

01:32.096 --> 01:33.817
EQUIPMENT, THE RESOURCES AND THE

01:33.819 --> 01:35.541
TRAINING THEY NEED TO OPEN

01:35.575 --> 01:37.749
SAFELY UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES

01:37.751 --> 01:40.655
WE FIND NOW.

01:40.689 --> 01:44.406
DONALD TRUMP AND BETSY DeVOS,

01:44.407 --> 01:45.977
SECRETARY DeVOS HAVEN’T STEPPED

01:46.011 --> 01:46.743
UP.

01:46.744 --> 01:49.255
WE’RE SEEING THE RESULTS.

01:49.256 --> 01:50.697
MILLIONS OF STUDENTS ARE

01:50.698 --> 01:52.241
STARTING THE SCHOOL YEAR IN THE

01:52.243 --> 01:54.411
SAME WAY THEY FINISHED THE LAST

01:54.413 --> 01:55.938
ONE, AT HOME, AT HOME.

01:55.972 --> 01:58.489
PARENTS ARE DOING THEIR BEST,

01:58.491 --> 02:01.665
BUT MORE AND MORE WERE FINDING

02:01.666 --> 02:03.138
THEMSELVES AT WIT’S END,

02:03.172 --> 02:06.569
STRUGGLING TO BALANCE WORK AND

02:06.570 --> 02:08.309
CHILD CARE AND EDUCATIONAL

02:08.310 --> 02:10.102
DUTIES, OR WORRYING ABOUT THEIR

02:10.103 --> 02:12.433
LOST PAYCHECK AND HOW THEY’LL
MAKE ENDS MEET WHILE TRYING TO

02:12.434 --> 02:15.406
MAKE ENDS MEET WHILE TRYING TO

02:15.407 --> 02:21.352
KEEP THEIR KIDS ON TRACK WITH

02:21.353 --> 02:22.460
REMOTE LEARNING.

02:22.461 --> 02:24.440
EDUCATE RERS TAKING ON COUNTLESS

02:24.474 --> 02:26.975
HOURS OF ADDITIONAL TRAINING TO

02:26.976 --> 02:29.222
LEARN HOW TO USE REMOTE TOOLS SO

02:29.256 --> 02:30.449
THEY CAN BE THERE FOR THEIR

02:30.483 --> 02:30.860
STUDENTS.

02:30.894 --> 02:32.380
BUT THEY’RE WORRIED ABOUT ALL

02:32.381 --> 02:34.122
THE KIDS WHO USED TO COUNT ON

02:34.156 --> 02:35.874
OUR SCHOOLS, ALL THOSE CHILDREN

02:35.908 --> 02:37.671
WHO NEED IT SO BADLY AND

02:37.672 --> 02:38.998
PARTICULARLY THOSE CHILDREN WHO

02:38.999 --> 02:40.307
NEED MORE THAN THE EDUCATION

02:40.309 --> 02:43.207
THEY PROVIDE THEIR MEALS AND

02:43.241 --> 02:45.697
SAFE PLACES TO SPEND THE DAY.

02:45.731 --> 02:47.949
WE’RE ALL CONCERNED ABOUT MAKING

02:47.950 --> 02:50.050
SURE COVID-19 DOESN’T FURTHER

02:50.051 --> 02:51.725
EXACERBATE THE DISPARITIES.

02:51.726 --> 02:53.528
THE DISPARITIES THAT ALREADY

02:53.562 --> 02:54.935
HAVE EXISTED IN OUR EDUCATIONAL

02:54.936 --> 02:55.464
SYSTEM.

02:55.498 --> 02:58.012
FOR SO MANY POOR CHILDREN AND IN
