Let's do this one and then we finish. Don. Don't. Don't. Hear. Have. Have. To. King. Come.
00:10
Mm-hmm. My son, he cannot read. He cannot write. I was told there is not a program
00:18
in the public school system that's gonna teach your dyslexic kid reading and
00:22
writing. The teachers just gave us homework and said do it.
00:26
Dennis gave up. And I was like, how is this possible?
00:35
In a city like New York, in a school system that is over 70 percent children of color,
00:40
the fact that a major portion of them are just never gonna read is offensive to me.
00:48
All of us have kids struggling with this. If I don't help him,
00:52
I know what lies ahead in this country for him.
00:58
60 to 80 percent of incarcerated youth have reading and writing disabilities.
01:04
You should have to learn to read when you're locked up.
01:11
I'm part of a team that is trying to build the first ever dyslexia school.
01:15
What I need is a green light. Okay.
01:17
It's not a secret what will support them. The research is there. We know that it works.
01:32
The people are patting us on the head and, you know, saying good job,
01:34
but no one's giving us the green light. We have to make our own noise.
01:39
Education means emancipation.
01:46
Neurodivergence matters. The answer to cancer might be in a dyslexic brain.
01:54
This can be revolutionary for the entire country if we do this right.
