Our union members have made decisions to do more to engage in, learn about, and fight for racial justice, in and outside of our schools and our union. We've participated in the Black Lives Matter at School work for the last 3 years and will continue to do so. Now we will take steps to develop workshops and training, political education and create space to discuss and process what's happening right now and what we do about it, together, as a union. We'd like to hear from you to inform this planning as we continue on this journey learning.
