Please VOTE YES on the Reparations for Black Students Resolution and reinvest in Black students, families, schools and staff in OUSD. This is a no brainer!
I urge a YES vote on the Reparations for Black Students today. As a resident of District 2, I urge you, Director Eng, to listen to and represent your constituents in voting Yes, just like your counterpart in District 2 in Oakland's City Council publicly urged the Board to do on 2/24/21. As an educator in District, I urge you, Director Davis, to act on your word to the students of District 1 and vote yes. The time is now to repair the decades of harm on our Black families and adopt a stance that centers the district's commitment to the success of our Black Students.

Please pass this resolution. This is something that our community needs and it will only help our schools and the Oakland community as a whole! This is an important and necessary step to ending systematic racism.

I strongly urge the Board to vote YES on the Reparations for Black Students resolution, and especially to reject any amendment that removes school closures from the demands. As a retired elementary school teacher and former President of the Oakland Education Association, and an Oakland flatlands resident for over 40 years, I can attest to the dire need for extra support for and investment in our Black students; the playing field is NOT equal. Stand on the right side of history!
Keep Black Schools Open! I urge the board to take bold action and listen to the call from Black Oakland for what is owed to Black Students. We owe Black Students a plan of action that names the inequities within the system and responds with the appropriate resources to repair harm and lift up their brilliance. Tonight, we ask for one simple thing. We ask for a plan and a commitment to fund Black students resources with transparency and partnership with Oakland community and beyond. Now is the time to be bold, to demonstrate that all the behinds scenes discussions on equity become real. Now is the time to bring together and prioritize what is working for black students and scale up. Time is running out. Every year, we lose more and more black students and their families.
I am a parent of 2 children in OUSD. As an Asian American, I feel it is more important than ever to support reparations for Black students and build together.
