Hello everyone! I'm at TPS HQ for #tpsb and will be covering #nomoreSROs/#copsoutofschools. 🔁

There is a lot more on the agenda today, of course. Current item is on access to carding data.

Background for the newbs: "carding" is known elsewhere as "stop and frisk" or just plain "walking while black". Key journalism:

Toronto Star's "Known to Police" http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/knowntopolice.html
Desmond Cole's "The Skin I'm In" http://torontolife.com/city/life/skin-im-ive-interrogated-police-50-times-im-black/

#tpsb #nomoreSROs #copsoutofschools 🔁

Desmond Cole (@[email protected]) briefly interrupts the proceedings to mention that proceedings are NOT being livestreamed outside and deputants (members of the public signed up to give speeches) won't be able to hear when the Chair calls their name. #tpsb #nomoreSROs #copsoutofschools 🔁
*sighhhhh* IFTTT not crossposting promptly, I may have to switch to birdsite or double-posting with Twidere.
ugh yes sorry everyone, tethering is not giving me enough bandwidth to crosspost effectively. For updates on Toronto possibly getting rid of police in schools, hmu on birdsite (https://www.twitter.com/neville_park). #tpsb #nomoreSROs #copsoutofschools
