A Progress 2025 Vision of Educational Justice

FEATURING IBRAM X KENDI - The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 takes severe aim at the U.S. educational system by targeting public education and students of color, LGBTQ students, and low-income students. The project’s authors also aim to eliminate the Department of Education and roll back federal protections and funding for students with disabilities, transgender and nonbinary students, and low-income students.

In the face of privatization, rising student debt, book bans, the infiltration of Christian nationalism in schools, attacks on accurate history education and more, what would a progressive vision of education in the U.S. look like? Dr. Ibram X Kendi, National Book Award-winning best-selling author and Boston University professor helped to answer that question.
