Solidarity Statement

We, at Educators for Social Justice, are hurt. We are at a loss. We are struggling. However, we will take action to support our black sisters and brothers. What happened to George Floyd is unacceptable and intolerable. As an organization we will not sit on the sidelines and be silent when such injustice happens. We will continue to do our part to reduce hatred in the world and improve systems that are broken and cause harm to people of color.
Here is a link to resources that can start to equip educators with knowledge to disrupt systems of oppression, racism, equity and white supremacy:
