As a coalition of Ethnic Studies educators, caregivers, and community organizers committed to fighting for liberatory education that teaches respect and dignity for all peoples, we demand an immediate end to U.S. intervention:
No war on Iran!
Let Cuba live!
End the US backed genocide in Palestine!

“Ethnic Studies is liberation studies …
That goes against all of our institutional structures, which are based on colonization and oppression.
So we shouldn’t be surprised, and
we need to be ready for these attacks.”

Courage is as contagious as fear, and we are here to spread courage for our students. At the same time, we want our resistance to be strategic and sustainable. In that spirit, this article provides an overview of students’ and teachers’ free speech rights in and out of the classroom. Please keep it close at school so you can share it with other teachers, administrators, and parents.
