It is essential for youth and children to be involved in
social movements, not simply learn about them in
classrooms. History has taught us that action is the
only way to bring about change. In this workshop,
participants will learn about successful efforts to
defund Oakland School Police and create Sanctuary
Schools for Black Students. We will explore the
importance of grassroots organizing and student-
teacher solidarity in interrupting the pre-school to
prison pipeline.
