DEFENDING OUR RIGHT TO LEARN
All students have a right to an equal education, but students of color (particularly Black and Indigenous students), students with disabilities, and low-income youth have historically been marginalized, criminalized, and under-resourced by the public school system.
We will challenge unconstitutional disciplinary policies that disparately target Black students and infringe on their right to a safe learning environment. We will also support policies to increase access to underrepresented groups facing systemic higher education barriers.
All students deserve equal access to a high-quality education, a safe learning environment, and a diverse student body that enriches the educational experiences of all students.
