Experiences of Educators of Color in the Public School System and in NYCoRE

This month’s political education piece will be facilitated by members of the Educators of Color (EoC) affinity group.

RSVP HERE

In the final NYCoRE Member Meeting of this school year, we will be looking at experiences of educators of color in the public school system. Additionally, we will look at experiences of educators of color in NYCoRE, the history of educators of color within NYCoRE, and reflect on how responsible we are as a collective to our values and our points of unity. We will take time to reflect on our individual experiences as educators with an eye toward building a more genuinely anti-racist and inclusive NYCoRE space in the upcoming school year.

In Working Groups, we will reflect on and celebrate this past year and share out our successes with the whole group.

Please remember to RSVP to give us an accurate head count for food! Also, please bring reusable food containers and utensils… let’s be radical in all aspects of our lives!

RSVP for May Member Meeting!

RSVP for Our May 20th Member Meeting

Immigration Enforcement, Law Enforcement, and Educational Justice

MigrationIsBeautifulPosters_18x24_hi_res_

 

Join us Friday, May 20th for our monthly member meeting. This month’s Political Education will be facilitated by members of NYCoRE’s Teach Dream Working Group.

In April, we discussed the intersections of the prison abolition movement and educational justice. In this month’s meeting, Teach Dream (a working group of NYCoRE) will continue this conversation by exploring the connections between immigration enforcement and law enforcement. The United States has a long history of using policing and borders to perpetuate racism and capitalism. We will read, discuss, and draw ways that we as educators in particular can resist and support resistance in order to imagine and bring forth a world without borders and without police.

Check out these two actions to support undocumented and immigrant youth and families:

To learn more about these actions, join us on May 20th!

Note: Credit for much of the political analysis in this workshop goes to the Black Lives Matter movement, the ICEfreeNYC coalition, Families for Freedom and the New York State Youth Leadership Council.

Please remember to RSVP to give us an accurate head count for food as well as bring reusable food containers and utensils. Let’s try to be radical in all aspects of our lives!

Time:
5:30 to 8:00 PM

This meeting will include political education and working group break out time.
