I've seen a lot of people talking about what occurred last night in Worcester MA with the riot that has led to 21 arrests and 2 hospitalizations and being a member of the media I'm making this thread to report what I saw happen.

Here’s an email I sent today to my city councilors in #Worcester #8cantwait #BlackLivesMatter #actlocally

The History and Political Science faculty & staff Worcester State put together a list of resources to help our students make sense of policing, racism, and protest - and to celebrate black lives smore.com/qhbz3-history-…

Today I quit Worcester Magazine and launched a substack on which I will continue the mission of making everyone in this city mad at me. I’m terrified!! Let’s go!! billshaner.substack.com/p/goodbye-worc…

Board of Health – June 25 nicolecommawoo.wordpress.com/2020/06/26/boa…

At this point the rally ended, not much else occurred afterwards. End of thread.

‘We failed these kids' bostonglobe.com/2020/06/28/met… via The Boston Globe Horrifying. Binienda should be fired along with every top level administrator. As a Worcester Public Schools parent I saw some of this and I knew it was bad, but this is even worse than I thought. Blame starts at the top.

Because I have been asked this question a number of times this morning: The Worcester School Committee evaluates the superintendent on July 16. #WorcSchools #worcpoli

A quote from my morning email to the #Worcester school committee led by Leah Petty-mayor: "I am horrified that, in the midst of a major, unprecedented, and logistically difficult crisis, our superintendent puttered around with databases, fretted about possible lawsuits, and

"I call on the members of the School Committee, the Mayor, and the City Manager to stand up for Worcester Public Schools students and families and begin the process of reconciliation, reparation, and education in the Worcester Public Schools.

It should be clear that the current superintendent has demonstrated herself incapable of leading such an effort."

Tracy O'Connell Novick I’ve been horrified at what was sent how. It was a mess that one son is AP and the other is in a STEP program but they both got the same assignments. There was ineffective support for the STEP program. I just hope they are planning for blended learning- at the least- for the fall

A bishop in Worcester, Massachusetts, said a school could no longer identify as Catholic because it flew Black Lives Matter and Pride flags. The school has refused to take them down. nyti.ms/3HQdOI9
