On the 69th Anniversary of the Supreme Court's landmark decision in Brown. v. Board of Education, recent legislation threatens the existence of DEI policies, making it important to understand where the fight started. Watch our new video with @NAACP_LDF's @antonioingram. #txlege

Texas, Election Day is around the corner, and our voices have never mattered more. Let’s honor those who fought for our right to vote and show up for leaders who will fight for justice, opportunity, and unity. Together, we can make history—let’s get out and vote!

The Texas Legislative Black Caucus is calling out the double standard at Texas Tech, where DEI initiatives are banned, but MAGA displays are permitted. It's time for fair, consistent policies that uphold genuine neutrality in Texas education.

Today marks the 60th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, a monumental step towards equality and justice for all. As we honor this legacy, let’s continue to fight for civil rights and ensure that everyone’s voice is heard.

Governor Abbott's pardon of Daniel Perry, who was convicted of murdering protester Garrett Foster, is a shocking miscarriage of justice. The Texas Legislative Black Caucus is calling out the hypocrisy and demanding accountability. Stand with us against this egregious decision.
