Clerk thank you, very much. All right. We have quorum. Thank you. Greetings and welcome for joining todays board of education meeting. Knowing that we all know this, i would like to say these are stressful and strange times, times we never thought would be visited upon us. I thought it was strange enough trying to wait out and resist the person currently occupying the white house. But now things have gotten more bizarre with the same person trying to bully students, families and teachers and other staff back into school buildings. Thats what were dealing with. Thats what its come to. Today we will be absorbing our fall learning plan. I know many will find aspects they will object to but this will find solace in the approach. This is the time for us to pull together collectively to row lie upon one another to make this year as good and meaningful as it can be for our childrens sake. And to continue to find, within ourselves, a sense of grace and compassion and flexibility as we move for
Grisham responds for the democrats. Plus, insight and analysis from our powerful roundtable. And he always did that which was right from his heart.

Good morning, and welcome to this week. On this sunday, as we celebrate a civil rights legend, the country is still in the grip of the coronavirus that has transformed our society, ravaged our economy, upended our politics and most tragic of all, cost so many lives, at least 145,000 in the u. S. This week, more than a thousand americans died on tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday and saturday. Five days straight for the First Time Since may. And as the caseloads continue to climb, the president s poll numbers continue to fall. Now trailing joe biden by more than eight points with hundred days before the final votes are cast. Our first guest has his work cu
People that were gathered i saw people from all different backgrounds, people from all different parts of this nation that came to honor an American Hero as he made his final journey across this bridge. And you know, back in march, john lewis was here and he gave some parting advice to the next generation to get in good trouble. To get in the way. And so many people that came out here today say they want to continue on his legacy. They wanted to come here to say goodbye and let him know that we got it from here, george. Thomas, one of the last of his generation. George, the greatest generation of civil rights leaders, were losing them one by we lost reverend lowery in march. In the past days we lost c. T. Vivian. John lewis believed that this new generation could take on the torch and get the job done, continue to push forward. We shall see, george.

Remarks from three former president s, george w. Bush, bill clinton, and barack obama. Live coverage is here on cspan3. Amen. This is john lewis favorite poem, invictus. Out of the night that covers me, black as a pit from pole to pole, i think whatever god may be to my inconquerable soul. In the fell clutches of circumstance, i have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeons of chance, my head is bloody, but im bound. Beyond this place looms but the horror of the shade. And yet menace of the years finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how straight the gate, how charged with punishment the scroll, im the master of my fate. Im the captain of my soul. John lewis was my hero and my friend, lets honor him by getting in good trouble. [ applause ] only the inconquerable spirit and the magnanimous soul of john lewis could summon all of us together in this place at this time. Only john lewis could compel three living american president s to come to this house of god. To celebra
