| Summary: | "The fight against racism has been ongoing in America for decades, but the long-simmering tensions came to a boil in 2020, sparking a rise in the Black Lives Matter movement. Writers for The Guardian and The Huffington Post note it as the second birth of the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960's. The movement has inspired educators across the US to critically examine their classrooms and curriculum for cultural responsiveness. As schools have been identified as spaces of great racial inequity, educators and administrators realize it is no longer enough for schools to be silent about racism--schools must be actively invested in anti-racism. Anti-racism is a form of action against systemic racism and oppression. Consequently, educators, administrators, and parents need access to resources, support, and professional development to guide them on their journey to being an anti-racist and actively providing quality, equitable education to all students."-- |
