In this episode of A More Perfect Podcast, I sit down with Lindsay, better known as Miss Mayday on TikTok, to talk about what’s really happening inside America’s classrooms. We dive into the impact of chronic underfunding, teacher shortages, and political attacks on education — and why these problems hit the most vulnerable students the hardest. From the shifting role of technology and AI in schools to the loss of community spaces, we explore how broader social and political changes are reshaping education. We also tackle misinformation, the fight for LGBTQIA rights, women’s healthcare in the VA, and why disengaging from politics is a privilege we can’t afford. This is a conversation about empathy, coalition building, and the urgent need to protect both our schools and our democracy.The VA is proposing a rule to ban nearly all abortions — even in cases of rape or health risks. This would gut the protections put in place in 2022 and harm millions of veterans, especially in states where abortion is already banned.Public comment is open until September 3, 2025 https://www.regulations.gov/commenton/VA-2025-VHA-0003-0001Tell the VA:Veterans deserve bodily autonomy. Abortion is healthcare. We will not go backward.Substack: https://substack.com/@amoreperfectpodcastDiscord: Join the Community
