The Marlon James EER Report - What are Your Reactions?

Posted by George Slate , August 31, 2013 at 08:26 PM 4 Comments  Recommend

Yesterday afternoon I printed out a copy of the MJLU report, and then read it for a little over an hour.  Then I shared quick reactions with two other people who were also reading the report.  Then I drafted up five postings, and the posted them at Patch land, and drove off to the 5 p.m. BOE meeting.  I wanted to have something out in Patch land for those not at the meetings, and they needed to be quotations from the report.  I've just read through what you folks commented on regarding those postings.  ............. Now, for those of you who have read the actual report, what are your reactions, and/or, what items in the report caught your eye?  Please share those with the rest of us as separate postings.

I am not a tech savvy person (hi Tim Curtis), so bear with me as I try to do that. Michaela - maybe you can E-mail me instructions. (She got me to do the postings to SPEAK OUT. ........... Do you prefer shorter posts, or a HUGE one? ........... I'll put out links to the ones already out there, when I start. ........ Thank you for your feed back.
