Services for lawmakers.

We prioritize expert race-conscious research on North Carolina-specific education issues, raising the collective awareness of the general public while inspiring and shifting the work of educators as they alter practices and protocols to become more equitable.

  • Reports and Policy Briefs

    With the release of our two reports, “Deep Rooted: A Brief History of Race and Education” and “E(race)ing Inequities: The State of Racial Equity in North Carolina Public Schools,” we hope to initiate the kind of candid discussion that leads to intervention. This research is the culmination of nearly 16 months of study funded by a grant through the North Carolina Center for Public Policy Research.

  • Legislative Progress Reports

    Our Legislative Progress Reports update you on happenings in the North Carolina State Legislature. We hope that you will take a moment to review it, and then act on the information provided. A quick tweet, email, or phone call to your representatives could make a difference.
