    Reopening high schools gets ugly, divisive in Bay Area district where rich and poor mix
    https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-02-27/san-mateo-county-reopening-high-schools-divides-rich-poor-parents-teachers
    South of San Francisco, the Sequoia Union High School District serves some of the Bay Area’s wealthiest communities, such as Atherton, Menlo Park and Woodside, as well as some of its neediest, including East Palo Alto, North Fair Oaks and Redwood City. On Tuesday, the school district learned it had risen into a state tier that would allow high school students, if they chose, to resume on-campus learning. At the urging of many parents, district leaders on Wednesday announced an April reopening plan. That is when things got ugly. “How many deaths will you accept as collateral for your two months of school? Can you live with that?” Allison Mok, a teacher at East Palo Alto Academy, asked the district’s board of trustees in a contentious Zoom meeting Wednesday... As in much of California, each community’s experience with the COVID-19 pandemic has shaped how parents and teachers view school reopenings. In East Palo Alto, where the median household income in 2018 was roughly $64,000, the coronavirus case rate as of Friday was five times higher than in Atherton, where the average annual household income in 2020 was more than $520,000. Vaccination rates are also different: As of Friday, just 10.16% of East Palo Alto residents have received a shot, compared with 43.98% of those living in Atherton.

    The Doctor Who Wrote the Powerful, Manipulative Playbook for the Anti-Abortion Movement
    https://jezebel.com/the-doctor-who-wrote-the-powerful-manipulative-playboo-1846335162
    The most enduring images of anti-abortion protestors in the ’90s depict murderers and zealots, the thousands of protesters who blockaded clinics in Kansas during Operation Rescue’s “Summer of Mercy” or the 31-year-old man who shot abortion provider Dr. David Gun three times in the back. But another set of activists were creating a more enduring movement in a squat brick office building on the aptly named Mercy Road in Omaha, Nebraska, where research labs shared space with chapels and the chief medical officer, a man named Dr. Thomas Hilgers, kept a wall display he referred to as the “Miracle Baby Bulletin Board.”

There were about 30 protesters at the site and some of them were chained to a fence near the vaccination site, Chakko said.

    An Apartment Within an Apartment Within a Nightmare
    https://jezebel.com/an-apartment-within-an-apartment-within-a-nightmare-1846408133
    New York City real estate is often a confounding mystery to those living outside of the most expensive and cursed city in America. But even those who live within the tiny confines of New York apartments, which for the most part are shoeboxes with toilets, no one expects to find an apartment inside of their... apartment. Tiktok user @samanthartsoe posted a four-part documentary special on what started out as a mysterious wind coming from her bathroom mirrorbut soon became a literal journey into the unknown. As audiences learn in the subsequent installations of Samantha’s TikToks, the air was coming from a gaping hole behind the mirror that opened up into a completely different abandoned apartment.
