Candidate Statement
I’m running because I believe that the Children of Color in our schools deserve better than the status quo. Just like you, I was heartbroken by the New York Times article last fall. I was already active attending PTO meetings and school board meetings, but my frustration with the pace of change finally galvanized me to do more.
I think that at this critical point in time, we need more than a voice. We need a seat at the table. I’ve seen countless parents and activists voice concerns regarding safety, the achievement gap, and the systematic racism plaguing our schools to no avail. It took national attention from the New York Times for the current administration to begin to have a dialogue about these issues. The same issues that the local community has voiced concerns about for a long time. I am running to represent the Children of Color in our community and in my home.
Here’s the good news: there are a lot of people in Charlottesville who want to work to change the systemic racism and economic inequality holding back black, brown, and poor students. We’ve seen what racism and inequality can do so let’s set our goals of compassion, real work, and equity and see what they can do in Charlottesville City Schools. We can do better…and I know we will.
