RalindaSpeaks in conversation on the Black@ Movement within private, elite institutions. The Black@ pages, sweeping across the country, recounts the systemic racism experienced by Black alums and students who attended private, independent schools. This movement has sparked a national dialogue on racial trauma, racism, leadership, and accountability within K-12 education, and the use of social media to document lived experiences. How can school communities (leaders, parents, alums, allies, and co-conspirators) use this as a growth opportunity to plant seeds that will advocate for and demand sustainable change for future generations.
