In an environment where we have people happily marching into the darkest spaces of the COVID ERA on purpose because they can’t think beyond the pained perspective of failed leadership, we have people like Karen Watkins. People who are perfectly willing to lean into discomfort and launch out into the battle of our era, engaging against a political machine that is perfectly willing to raise autocracy over reason and cause our children to suffer at the hands of incompetence, she rises to claim a seat of authority on the Gwinnett County Board of Education in order to promote equity and uplift. This is who she is and what she will do. This is the one about the truth, Education is not Political … unless we make it.
