Standardized testing is a pillar of systemic racism.

Mr. Bowman here is the representative for New York’s 16th Congressional District. Clearly the way to help schools full of Oppressed Kids is to make sure that the schools never have to prove that they’ve actually educated the kids. That’ll work out *great.*
Bonus round: from his Wiki page…
Bowman is the founder and former principal of the Cornerstone Academy for Social Action, a public middle school in Eastchester, Bronx. He is a member of the Lower Hudson Valley chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America.
He’s an educator. A Socialist educator.
Bowman was inspired to run by the insurgent 2018 campaign of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and described his platform as “anti-poverty and anti-racist” with support for housing, criminal justice reform, education, Medicare for All, and a Green New Deal.
Yup. Math checks out.
