JOHN,
Today, on Juneteenth, we commemorate the end of slavery in the United
States—marking the day in 1865 when the last enslaved people in Galveston,
Texas, finally learned they were free.
Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom. But it’s also a reminder of how long
justice can be delayed—and how hard we must work to ensure it is never denied
again.
The moral arc of history may bend towards justice, but only if we bend it.
At Educated We Stand, we carry that responsibility into our fight for public
education. Because the same forces that once denied Black Americans the right
to learn arestill working today to whitewash history, silence truth, and
undermine equity in our schools.
Extremist groups like Moms for Liberty are trying to ban books about slavery
and civil rights. They’re pushing for a curriculum that erases Black voices and
Black history. And they’re doing it while celebrating politicians who want to
dismantle the very system of public education that helps create opportunity in
the first place.
But we will not back down.
We are fighting every day to ensure every child—no matter their zip code,
race, or background—has access to a public education that is honest, inclusive,
and empowering.
If you’re with us, please consider chipping in today to help us build an
education system that lives up to the promise of Juneteenth.
