Rhode Island Urban Debate League

We support urban core students to think critically and understand the power of their voices. We use debate as a tool for equity, justice and liberation.

We love the work we do. We love seeing students find the strength in their voice, getting fired up about issues in their community, and feeling empowered to do something about them. If you love all those things for Rhode Island youth, donate today! https://t.co/qiYvZg0YJ1

Gearing up for a new school year and remembering why we do what we do.

This quote, where Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson shines a light on the influence speech & debate had on her life, is a reminder of our why. We dream alongside our teens for bright, thriving futures. Can't wait to welcome our youth to a new season in September!

Every piece of evidence out there shows that cops are:
A. Ineffective at stopping school shootings
B. Putting our youth at risk of physical & mental harm.
