It was not inclusive/equitable in the least. Instead of getting everybody together in one room to disucss concerns/ideas, people were separated by language.

Getting rid of the sub-minimum wage and, at the same time, tip credit for wait staff at restaruants is a bad idea.

Tim feels smarter after this one!2022-09-3039 minSmarter and HarderEp27 - Question 5 - School Board Autonomy?Quick recap of school committee meeting. Eli makes Tim do some reading on issues for November 8th vote. The School Board and Superintendent don't want any checks and balances from City Council.

At the 19:16 mark, they switch over to Xavier's lack of buy-in from those who work under him. How is it that rumors of a Vote of No Confidence are starting to swirl around the winner of a leadership award. Most great educational leaders do not have a mass-exodus of those who they are leading. 2022-07-1938 minSmarter and HarderEp 21 - Where Are We Going Eli?Eli helps Tim make sense of the feeling that we are going backwards in time.

Epic fail on Xavier's part. Tim is hot under the collar. Eli, once again, brings logic and sense to the conversation. Vague and unsubstantiated stats from the leader of our school district. Fitting some data to a narrative?? 2022-06-1029 minSmarter and HarderEp 17 Dark Money - In Portland?Tim hears the term "dark money" and thinks it's a subplot in a Batman movie. Eli, once again, takes Tim to school on the what, who, and why dark money exists in politics. But the big question is "Why a small town like Portland, Maine?"2022-06-0824 minSmarter and HarderEp 16 - Portland Schools - A Political Body???Tim asks Eli to help understand a school board that seems to be driven more by politics than what is best for Portland's youth. Why are so many white middle-aged women being forced out, leaving for health reasons and/or leaving the district altogether? Is there room for politics on a school board? Also, can we actually achieve true equity for our school children under the contraints of a limited budget? 2022-06-0236 minSmarter and HarderEp 15 - Portland Protests - Poor responseEli and Tim are shaking their heads at the response, or lack there of, from the superintendent's office. It's obvious that they have had enough of the singular-focus and lack of discipline in our buildings. A plead to their listeners to take action and speak up. Labels be damned. Our students deserve better. 2022-05-2529 minSmarter and HarderEp. 14 - Protests at Portland Middle SchoolsEli and Tim both have children who experience what could have been a great example of student voice and civil rights.
