Universal Preschool For All (Measure 26-214) provides free preschool to all 3 and 4 years olds in in Multnomah County with an income tax on the top 5% of earners while providing quality paying jobs to educators. I chat with one of the brains behind the program, Sahar Muranovic, about the details of this policy and the intersectional issues it confronts.
Later in the show I bring on my longtime friend Dustin, who is a public school teacher in the Portland area, to talk about his work on the Rhythm Nation Organizing Team as well as a playlist on the importance of education. For a playlist of the episode and for more information on our organizing program, visit my website at https://petermarks.us.
