SEVEN-POINT ACTIONABLE AGENDA ITEMS

We insist that NYSED and all Educational Systems:

  • Ensure the inclusion of Anti-Bias workshops, Anti-Racism training, and Culturally Responsive Sustaining Education practices for all teachers as part of attaining a NYS teaching certification.

  • Mandate the consistent and authentic integration of comprehensive Black history & societal contributions, civics, and social justice education across all disciplines within the K-12 Curriculum.  

  • Require the consistent integration of experiential learning in Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) throughout grades K-12 for all students. 

  • Replace current mandated state assessments with multiple forms of performance-based assessments.

  • Integrate restorative practices for school safety, staff, and students as part of the daily culture of the school in order to build community and disrupt the School-to-Prison Pipeline.

  • Increase the hiring of Black teachers, support the development of Black faculty members, and improve leadership opportunities for Black educators.

  • Provide appropriate funding as per the Campaign for Fiscal Equity.
