Black Lives Matter

PIE_BLM_3@2x-8.png

Our hearts break every time we see Black lives violently and continuously taken due to anti-Black racism that plagues our society and is perpetuated by police brutality. 

As an organization committed to humanizing schooling, understanding and dismantling systemic racism and white supremacy is central to our mission. 

As an organization rooted in Detroit, we came to humanizing schooling as a response to the systems that dehumanize the black and brown children in this city. We are here for the long term work of creating a world where every human life is valued. 

We stand in solidarity with and support efforts to bring about transformational change. We honor and say of the names of those who have been recently lost:

George Floyd Breonna Taylor Ahmaud Arbery Tony McDade

We are grateful for the support, direction and resources from community during this time, and we share them in hopes that you also find them helpful:
