Many school policy trends and spending priorities are failing to address widespread racial inequalities in our schools. Many ineffective and punitive policies also detract attention and resources from positive reforms that have demonstrated improvements in educational excellence and equity--such as expanding the pool of high-quality teachers and reducing the size of schools and classes. Community-based organizations, educators and their allies are invited to participate. An online Action Kit includes many suggestions for how you can participate. http://www.arc.org/erase/dayofaction/main.html
