Dismantling Racism Starts Here:
ELIMINATE THE SCHOOL TO PRISON PIPELINE

Nationally, about 38% of Black children experience out -of-school- suspensions while Blacks comprise only about 13% of the American population.  Out of school suspensions do not work, and channels Black children out of public schools and into the criminal justice system.

We invite you to join The Racial Equity Initiative’s Martin Luther King Day of Service webinar in collaboration with Global Citizen 365
