It was a school board race that set national records for outside spending and was characterized by some as a battle between charter and union forces. The dust has settled and attention now turns to the future of the nation’s second-largest school district, LAUSD. Today we’re joined by super-dope educator and incoming school board member Tanya Ortiz Franklin to reflect on the good, the bad, and the ugly elements of running for office.
