In the education system, I have seen unconscious bias in teachers and school staff. Students of color are more likely to experience disciplinary actions and are overall less supported. Students of color have been judged and reprimanded when struggling with their education rather than encouraged with love and empathy. They are also less likely to be encouraged or supported when taking more advanced classes.

in looking at a recent school district set of data around those who are taking computer engineering and engineering courses in general and honors math and science, the number of students of color were like Richards story starkly different for students of color, especially black students. the data showed it divergence of these types of classes after middle school.

Instead of making assumptions educators can build relationships with parents and find out how they are engaging with their students, they can create opportunities beyond the typical, and they can take time to listen and learn. They can also stop fanning the flame and having disparaging conversations.

I think it takes systems change - examination of the processes and procedures that are in place that perpetuate white supremacy in the education system.

Teachers need to cultivate awareness of their biases and have more conversations about race. They also should work on leading with empathy, kindness , and understanding
