The Organization
#EduColor: Tomorrow There'll Be More Of Us
EDUCOLOR mobilizes advocates nationwide around issues of educational equity, agency, and justice. We amplify the works and ideas of students, educators, and communities of color through supportive on- and off-line networks and professional development. EduColor was founded by people of color, with people of color, for people of color.
As executive director, I'm proud to work with educators across the country and the world on these issues, hosting events with educators, parents, students, policymakers, and luminaries to build an organization that centers community issues while building partnerships with organizations large and small.
