Decision-makers have a continuing obligation under federal and state anti-discrimination laws to provide an equal opportunity to all candidates. SCOTUS's decisions should not mean that candidates of color are not welcome on college a campuses.

Brown v. Board of Education advanced racial equity and expanded access to educational settings from which Black students had long been excluded.

This landmark case should not be weaponized to dismantle programs that further educational access for students of color.

New! Calling on the U.N. to encourage all nations to provide an education that protects the telling of the full and accurate history of people of African descent globally. #Voices4HonestEd @2020GaTOTY @chrisdier @gerardinho9 @tk_nagayoshi @TexasTOY2014 https://t.co/dbFP4TFHRV

Equity demands colleges consider race during admissions. This decision harms students ability to say how racial identity contributes to their success and makes a less dynamic and enriching educational experience for all students

On this day in history (5/10) in 1933, Nazis burned over 20k books. Let us never forget the consequences of societies that ban books.

History shows that Black people and allies have never been effectively silenced.

We the people will always put up a robust defense of our right to freely tell the stories of our lived experiences and of those who came before us. https://t.co/3qhd9pu5RL
