Luis Gallegos, an Assistant Principal at Alliance Ouchi, a high school in Los Angeles, joins Darien on today's show! Luis is a public school educator and has served in schools throughout New England and Los Angeles, CA. As a queer, Latinx school leader, he works from a social justice lens with the goal of empowering students to dismantle systems of oppression. The conversation unpacks the inequitable impacts of COVID-19 on public schools, teachers, students and families, and illustrates again that we must focus on the root causes of risk in society.
