Upcoming Event

Black Education Forum

We’re excited to bring our community back together this summer for the Black Education Forum on August 14. This year’s theme, All Politics is Local in the Age of AI, invites us to explore how national shifts in technology and policy are showing up in our communities, schools, and systems every day.



We’ll convene leaders across education, innovation, policy, and philanthropy for a day of honest dialogue, shared learning, and forward-looking action. Together, we’ll examine what it means to stay grounded in local context while navigating rapid change and how we build power, accountability, and opportunity for Black learners in this moment.
