What will stop the leak?

Right now, the Black educator pipeline is leaking at every stage—
from recruitment to retention.
But we know what works.

We’re urging legislators to support real solutions:
$100M investment in the Golden State Teacher Grant
$Support for ACA 7 to restore race-conscious policymaking
$10M/year to fund the Diverse Education Leadership Pipeline Initiative (DELPI)

On April 7, we’re bringing this directly to the Capitol with the Aya Education Coalition.
Because the goal isn’t just to bring Black educators in, It’s to ensure we can stay, thrive, and lead.

🌿Reclaim Rest
🌿Engage in Radical Healing Practices
🌿Storytelling and Connection
🌿Reimagine Sustainability

Educators left feeling replenished and equipped to start the school year with wellness at the forefront. 💛

Today we honor Juneteenth not just as a day of emancipation, but as a reminder that freedom delayed is still freedom denied.

We celebrate our ancestors’ joy in 1865 when the last enslaved Black people were told they were free two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation.

But let’s be clear:
Juneteenth is not the end of the story it’s a call to keep building liberation.
Because the chains didn’t all break in Galveston.
They just changed shape.
🧱 In schools that erase our history
🚨 In systems that criminalize our children
💼 In workplaces that exploit and silence Black voices

So today, we celebrate. We remember. We organize.
Freedom is not a single moment.
It’s a continuous, collective push and we’re still in it.

New from Black Minds Matter 2025: Building Bright Black Futures highlights the ways California still isn’t doing right by Black students – along with the change agents and transformative strategies that should guide state and local leaders in significantly speeding up the pace of progress.

We are grateful to be mentioned in this report as a change agent organization illuminating the path forward for Black educators and students✨
