Gain a better understanding of the effect that white supremacy has had on our education system. Additionally, attendees will gain a better understanding of the programs currently proposed (or already underway) to improve the education of our students as we explore a more equitable education system.
The workshop will focus on how the following concerns will be impactful:
- Underfunding of education (the impact on our students)
- Diversifying faculty and staff at our institutions and the impact on students
- Including ethnic studies in educational levels K-14
- Presenting all subjects from an ethnically diverse curriculum
- Closing the opportunity gap for students and the de-escalation of police on campuses
- Restorative justice in education
- Addressing intentional racism within the education system.
