Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

16. School board approves Whitted School renovation money from bond
fund
10.25.12 - 09:28 pm
By Wes Plattwplatt@heraldsun.com; 919-419-6684DURHAM – The
Durham Public Schools Board of Education on Thursday approved
allocating $3 million in bond money toward the proposed renovation of
the county-owned Whitted School.It was part of an overall package
proposed by DPS administrators that includes $1.27 million in repairs
at Northern High School, $2.3 million for a new roof and other fixes at
Pearsontown Elementary and $1.2 million for design work on a new
elementary school that would likely go to bid in 2015.But those are
district-owned properties and the money that will be used for the
repairs came from funds originally earmarked for a high school that ’s
now off the table.Board member Nancy Cox said she worried that
critics would question whether they were being good stewards of
taxpayer money by approving the money for Whitted without knowing
just how much the project will cost and what obstacles might be faced
as it goes forward.So, she recommended that the board approve the
fund allocations without the Whitted money until after Durham County
commissioners meet next month to hammer out some of the
details.“This would help us be really clear we want to dedicate the
money this way,” Cox said.Some bond money, about $9 million, was
allocated to the ambitious DPS plan to upgrade schools, teachers and
students with top-of-the-line technology, she noted, and she could get
behind that.“But this is a new project and I’m not sure why it would
hurt to let the county take the lead,” she said.
17. Board member Frederick Davis disagreed, saying, “Let’s pass this and let
(county commissioners) turn it down. We’re taking the lead.”Board
member Natalie Beyer countered: “I’m not sure we know what we’re taking
the lead on.”She went on to voice concerns about long-term expenses
that the district would face with the project. The county and city would
share renovation expenses, she said, but only DPS would be left with a
recurring bill. Although it would yield eight new pre-kindergarten
classrooms to start putting a dent in the 2,000 students that aren’t yet
served properly by the district, those operating costs would remain an
issue.“We’re in it with blood, 15, 20, 30, 40 years from now,” she said.
“And we haven’t figured what we’re taking away from other students by
doing this. We just are committing to something long-term that we don’t
have a funding stream for.”Hugh Osteen, DPS assistant superintendent
for operational services, said that the administration would work on
identifying resources, such as Title I money, to cover those
expenses.“We’re confident we can do that,” Osteen said.He also said that
if the county chooses not to move forward with the project, or if it does
choose to move forward and the Board of Education changes its mind,
they are within their power to do so.“I’m sorry,” Cox said. “I do not feel
like I’m being put in a position to be a good steward.”This isn’t her area of
expertise, she said, so “this is where I trust you to guide me.”
18. She said constituents had complained in
the past about using bond money for
something other than the high school and
that this put her in a situation where she
might face similar concerns.“I support the
premise, but don’t do this to us,” she said
to Osteen and Superintendent Eric
Becoats.Davis, on the other hand, urged
administrators to “keep doing what you’re
doing” and complained about a lack of
leadership by the board.Board member
Omega Curtis Parker said she hasn’t
heard any complaints.
19. “All of us aren’t struggling with this,” she told Cox.
“Don’t put us all in the same boat. I know you’re
not speaking for me.”Chair Heidi Carter thought
the project should move forward, even with the
misgivings shared by some of the board, because
the plan could ultimately change later.Board
member Leigh Bordley sought a bargain that would
pull Whitted off and “slow it down for just a couple
of weeks” for one more committee meeting.“That’s
not an acceptable compromise,” Davis said.Vice-
chair Minnie Forte-Brown agreed. “We have got to
do our homework. It’s a plan. People, come on. If
they approve it and we don’t like it, we change
it.”In the end, the board voted 5-2 in favor of
approving the entire fund allocation, with Beyer
and Bordley opposing.
