Responsible Parents and Caregivers Are Advocating for Inclusive Schools
Most parents and caregivers support inclusive education based on credible, research-based pedagogy that values the well-being of all students. However, as Maya Henson Carey of the SPLC's Intelligence Project points out: “An artificial division between parents and educators is being exploited to advance the harmful agendas of political groups attacking inclusive learning in public schools to the detriment of young people’s well-being and education.” These LFJ resources explore how responsible parents and caregivers are focusing on children’s right to inclusive and equitable education to counter politically motivated “parents’ rights” groups with discriminatory agendas.
Responsible parent and caregiver groups are focusing on children’s right to inclusive and equitable education—in direct opposition to politically motivated “parents’ rights” groups with discriminatory agendas that harm young people.
Parents of color and parents of conscience, whose children make up the majority of students in public education, must be centered in conversations on race and inclusive education.
