Native America Calling

July 17, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

Today, July 17 – New Mexico confronts public education disparities

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Two lawsuits are shining a harsh light on New Mexico’s learning environments for Native American students. The American Civil Liberties Union of New Mexico is suing the Albuquerque Public Schools over a teacher allegedly calling a Navajo student a “bloody Indian.” Another maintains the state has not made enough progress in correcting inequities for Native students as ordered by a court in a previous lawsuit. We’ll hear about both of these cases and explore what hopes there are for providing an equitable public education for all students.
