As a reporter, I interviewed @rodpaige many times & always impressed w/his focus on most vulnerable students. He was “unsatisfied with the status quo," & challenged ‘the soft bigotry of low expectations." RIP apnews.com/article/rod-paige…
Excited to hear about findings from “The State We Are In” from @advanceillinois
