The intersection of public education and racism

What can people of faith do to make public education stronger so all children can achieve their highest potential without the restraints of our nation’s chains of racism?

We invite you to join with communities of faith across Iowa in faithful conversations about The 1619 Project.

Sometimes it is difficult to know how to talk about race and racism with your children, grandchildren, or kids in your congregation’s youth group. What questions can create an honest, meaningful conversation?

Faith leaders who participate in Faithful Voices for Racial Justice encourage faith communities across Iowa to explore and highlight achievements of Black Americans and Black communities all year long.

Faith Leaders from all traditions and beliefs are welcome to sign the statement regarding racism in Iowa.
