Save OUR Children: NAACP Calls for Equity in Public Education and Diversity in Leadership

The Issue

It’s a sad time in history when teacher’s academic freedom is on the line by the hands of those who aren’t even in the classroom and political partisanship divides our school boards and supersedes our children’s rights to educational equity. 

As an Association we support strategies that call for a reforming of education policies, diversity in leadership, and the preservation of historical accuracy to develop change agents and a well-informed citizenry. 

Join the Miami-Dade Branch of the NAACP in our call-to-action campaign as we work collectively to rekindle the fire for equity in education, Black representation on our school board and greater diversity in leadership. Five ways to get involved: 

  • Sign the petition to Save our Children
  • Contact your elected officials to support legislation and policy that promotes equity in education and diversity in leadership
  • Attend local school board meetings 
  • Join the NAACP’s education committee
  • Stand up for education
