Ensuring Support for Racial Equity in School
The COVID-19 pandemic and the nationwide reckoning about
institutional racism have cast a bright light on longstanding
inequities in our educational system.
On August 17, 2020 we heard from UC Davis experts about
the latest research into educational disparities for Black and
Latinx students, systemic challenges to creating change, and ways
that schools and community members can support each other to
improve all student outcomes.
