There is a $23 billion gap between predominantly white and predominantly non-white school districts.
The Biden-Harris administration not only needs to invest in education, but needs to do so in a way that is racially equitable and closes this gap.

It is unfair and overwhelming that once again our hearts are breaking for the Black lives lost to violence we’ve seen before our eyes – and for the communities where we work and the kids we teach, who have lost so much and felt so much pain, especially in recent weeks.
