Stephen Duncombe  I'm a professor of politics and culture and teach at the
“alternative”
school of NYU, Gallatin. I've been politically active my entire adult
life. I co-founded a community activist group in the Lower East Side in
the 1990s and have worked on countless local and global campaigns
before and since. My older son, Sydney, is in kindergarten at PS3, and
my younger son, Sebastien, will be following soon. We live on Bleecker
Street, just below Washington Square Park, and I’ve lived in Lower
Manhattan for more than twenty years.I am a child of educators and attended public schools from Kindergarten though Graduate School. My K-5 was an alternative public school a lot like PS3 (although, bless the 1970s, our “learning clusters,” aka grades, had names like Apollo and Gemini). I’d like to join the SLT because I believe strongly in being actively involved in community, including my children’s school community, and I think I can bring my experience as teacher (and ex-alternative public school student), as well as my skills as an organizer, to the team. I like working with other people to get things done. RETURN to SLT PAGE |
