    Strict school zones keep students of color out of elite public schools, study says
    https://www.axios.com/2024/04/24/school-zones-inequality-brown-v-board-report
    Rigid school attendance zones allow districts to legally keep many students of color and low-income families out of coveted, elite K-12 public schools, a new study finds. Why it matters: The U.S. will soon mark the 70th anniversary of the landmark Brown v. Board of Education decision that ended legal segregation in public schools. Yet, researchers found growing inequality in school access as the nation has become more diverse, according to the new study by nonpartisan education watchdog Available to All. School segregation between Black and white students has returned to 1968 levels.

    Edmonton police chase man without a bike light into a frozen river where he died. Cops cleared of all charges.
    https://edmontonjournal.com/news/local-news/edmonton-police-asirt-north-saskatchewan-river-drowning
    Two weeks after a man fatally slipped into the icy grip of the North Saskatchewan River after police tried to stop him for a bicycle violation, the officers involved have been cleared by the Alberta Serious Incident Response Team (ASIRT)... The city police Air-1 helicopter quickly located the man and the pursuing officers, recording the ordeal with its video system which ASIRT has now reviewed. None of the officers used force against the man, and none were nearby when he slipped on the river ice. “During the pursuit, the male can be seen riding a bike without the necessary equipment, which corroborates the officers reasoning for attempting to stop the male,” said the ASIRT release, adding no use of force is shown.

    Summer Lee wins Pennsylvania primary in victory for progressives
    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/apr/23/summer-lee-wins-pennsylvania-primary
    The significant victory for the ‘Squad’ member comes amid concerns of pro-Israel funding targeting pro-ceasefire candidates. Despite the absence of [AIPAC], one Super Pac did get involved in Lee’s primary to boost Patel’s campaign. The Moderate Pac, which aims to support centrist Democrats and is largely funded by Republican megadonor Jeffrey Yass, spent more than $600,000 supporting Patel. Lee and her allies turned Yass’ involvement in the race into a campaign issue, lambasting the billionaire’s Super Pac contributions. “We’re going to send them a message that, whether it’s Jeffrey Yass or Jeffrey Bezos, their billion dollars aren’t welcome here,” Lee said at a rally in Pittsburgh on Sunday. “There is no room for people who would use our communities against each other for their own political ambition.”

    Welcome to a new era of trans-authored cinema
    https://www.polygon.com/24132301/trans-movies-2024-i-saw-tv-glow-peoples-joker-t-blockers-essay
    Queer cinema has always been in a state of continual evolution, but the evolution of trans depiction has come slower, even during agreed-upon golden eras of queer cinema. But in 2024, we are in the midst of a potentially new movement in which three trans-authored films are reshaping the possibilities of what a trans film looks like, and how transness can be expressed in cinema.

    Keith McNally Claims a Revenge-Seeker Unleashed Mice in Balthazar
    https://ny.eater.com/2024/4/22/24137392/keith-mcnally-balthazar-lauren-sanchez-mice
    A few days later, on Thursday, McNally reported that, at 8:30 p.m. a man sat at the bar, “released six domesticated white mice from a paper bag, and ran out of the restaurant.” A bartender, he says, ran after the man, while “the mice were quickly caught.” McNally points out how moments after the mice incident occurred, socialite Michelle Manning Barish posted a video of a mouse running in the bar area, echoing his McNally’s Instagram post, calling it, “absolutely REVOLTING.” He cites her as having written, “And the owner is vocally antisemitic, a defender of sexual predators, decided to cyber bully Lauren Sanchez and even creepy with me. Karma,” to which he wonders if she “orchestrated this vile stunt or was at least party to it?” Eater has contacted Barish for comment.

    'Seagull Boy', nine, wins European screeching competition
    https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-derbyshire-68874762
    Cooper started doing seagull impressions after being nipped by one of the birds. The family heard about the competition from a random man who overheard Cooper doing impressions at a soft-play centre and suggested Cooper could compete. He scored 92 points out of a possible 100, which meant he won the juvenile category and also had the highest points score in the competition. The other categories were for adults and also for "colonies", meaning a group of people doing seagull impressions. Cooper took his lucky mascot with him - a small model seagull which he calls Stephen and his spells with a "ph", but his parents call Steven Seagull, like the actor Steven Seagal.

    Venomous snake brought into hospital in lunchbox prompts plea from doctors — 'please don't do this'
    https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-04-22/bite-victims-warned-stop-bringing-snakes-to-emergency-department/103752506
    Snake bite victims are endangering medical staff by bringing the reptiles with them to hospital, doctors say. In Queensland's Wide Bay region, doctors have come face to face with some of the world's most venomous snakes captured by patients believing it'll help with identification and treatment. In one case earlier this month, emergency staff at Bundaberg Hospital, four hours north of Brisbane, were handed a plastic food container with a small eastern brown snake inside peering back at them.
