Team,
In Mississippi, organizers are fighting back against a new law that targets diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in schools.
Under this law, Mississippi schools cannot create, teach, or promote DEI programs. Teachings on everything from the Civil War to women’s suffrage to the LGBTQ+ rights movement could be censored.
This is not just about a single bill. It's about safeguarding the truth of our nation's journey — the struggles, achievements, and diverse narratives that shape who we are today.
There’s still time to join the fight before this bill goes into effect on July 1.
If you support educators teaching full American history without censorship or consequence, and our work in Mississippi and states like it, please add your name to this petition today →
Groundwork Project stands with local organizers and educators in Mississippi who are courageously fighting against this harmful legislation.
Together, we can protect the integrity of our educational system and empower students with the truth.
Thank you for standing with us,
Groundwork Project
