Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Lied About Her Test Scores to a Public Education Group

This comes from the Washington Free Beacon, and it is a great one:
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) spoke Saturday at an event focused on eliminating private education and boycotting ‘racial’ and ‘gender-biased’ standardized testing.
The ‘Education Town Hall’ organized by Jackson Heights People for Public Schools included a medley of New York’s progressive organizations. NYC Opt Out, New York State Association for Bilingual Education, Network for Public Education, Class Size Matters, Alliance for Quality Education, and Allies for Public Education participated.
One of the speakers at this event was Diane Ravitch, a former U.S. assistant secretary of education who believes that offering any children choice of schools is anti-democratic and is a major conspiracy from the right wing and major corporations meant to destroy public education.
She also has some very… questionable beliefs when it comes to teaching African-American history in schools, as pointed out by school choice activist Citizen Stewart on Twitter.
