** Race + Power Weekly
------------------------------------------------------------

In this week’s Race + Power newsletter, we’re focusing on education. First, the importance for people in prison to have access to higher education as a means of reshaping the criminal justice landscape. Next, discriminatory policies built within the school system and the ways they affect young people of color. Then, a report by the American Association of University Professors warns of an “unparalleled assault” on higher education. And finally, how student debt perpetuates inequity and why it’s necessary to cancel that debt.
