Tesa Wilson on the charter invasion of Williamsburg: "We can no longer let the one percent dictate to the 99 percent"

Tesa Wilson, public school parent and president of the Community Education Council in District 14, Williamsburg denounces the "separate but unequal" proposal to insert a Success Academy charter school in PS 19 in her community: "We can no longer let the one percent dictate to the 99 percent."

She points out that Eva Moskowitz, the head of Success Academy charters, makes over $300,000 a year; "If you're telling me that she knows more about what happens in my community; I say you're wrong."
