Why #BlackLivesMatter in Your Classroom Too
by Cornelius Minor

Quotes from the reading:

“To continue with business as usual, to do nothing, to be “neutral” is a passive declaration of racism because the system that we are most intimately connected with—school—will continue to produce unjust outcomes for people of color. To be anti-racist is to be actively involved with the disruption of these systems.”

“Being an advocate for black lives does not mean that I am an advocate against any other lives. When we make the conscious decision to address persisting injustices, this broadens access to justice for everyone.”
