It’s a Family Reunion: Thurgood Marshall College Fund Teacher Quality and Retention Program
This summer, I attended the best family reunion ever. But here’s the catch; none of us who attended the reunion were actually blood-related. In fact, most of us had never seen each other in our lives. However, the kinship was there from the start and we were definitely a family.

Feminism, Womanism and Election 2018
As we stand a month away from the midterm elections, we do so as a record number of women of color are running for office. Congressional candidates like Rashida Tliab of Michigan, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, and Jahana Hayes of Connecticut.

In Defense of Affirmative Action
The most recent battle in the war against affirmative action is being brought by Students for Fair Admissions against Harvard University.

Will this be the battle that finally brings down affirmative action?
