faith in spontaneous change

the trouble with faith that change will happen, is that it displaces concrete change. the strongest faith will never be actual change.

faith that the leadership of the aps will ever change is unwarranted. nothing has ever changed, nothing will.

how can faith be justified by stonewalling? how can you trust people whose only response to questions is to stonewall?

• the relationship with modrall,
• the relationships with the media,
• the accounting for the uptown administrative complex,
  
• the lovato/aps police scandal and,
• the administrative audit?

if they will not acknowledge the questions or even their obligation to answer questions in the first place; why in the world would anyone think that they will ever actually answer them?

there are aps administrators who are themselves, neither corrupt nor incompetent.
their personal interests are threatened by the culture created by the current administration.
they are owned a system that protects them.
so are students, and teachers, and the community.

there is a proposed concrete change that so far has heard no objection; an impartial administrative audit, which would reveal the successes and shortcomings in the administration of the public interests in the aps.

the results will be reviewed by the community and the leadership of the aps; and appropriate resolutions will be implemented.

why then, does an actual audit seem so unlikely?

it is because the audit, which represents a real threat only to the corrupt and incompetent in the leadership of the aps; has powerful opponents.

sooner or later there will be an annual aps administrative accountability audit.

"all that is necessary for the audit to die, is for good men to do nothing"

if there is no audit, it will not be because those who feared it spoke out against it.

it will be because those who should have spoken out in its support, did not.


to fear to face an issue is to believe the worst is true.
