In the past year, hundreds of public schools have been closed down in mostly brown and black communities, in the name of budget cuts and improving the quality of education. At the same time, millions of taxpayer dollars are put into building more prisons to incarcerate our youth, rather than closing the inequality divide and improving neighborhood schools. Structural change of the media system is integral to winning change in the educational system. We need an accountable media system that is not driven by market forces, but rather by community needs.</p>

It will convene community members who are working at the intersection of education justice/reform and media justice. We will hear from grassroots activists and organizers who are using media and culture to advance these fights.</p>
