Taking Action to Confront Authoritarianism

We’ll continue exploring what actions that we, as elders, can take to push back against extremist attacks. We’re focusing on right-wing efforts to undermine public education, including restricting curricula, punishing discussion of targeted topics, and eliminating programs (like DEI) that make a school environment safe and welcoming for all students.

We’ll continue sharing what we’ve learned so far through our research on how these issues are playing out in our own local school districts, including the actions of extremist protesters like Moms4Liberty, or of right-wing school board members.
