The event, hosted by renowned television jurist Judge Greg Mathis, will feature two comprehensive sessions from 1:00-2:30 PM and 3:00-4:30 PM EST, showcasing an impressive lineup of expert speakers who will share research, practical solutions, and strategic initiatives aimed at challenging systemic inequities in education.
Featured speakers include distinguished scholars and educational leaders Drs. Bettina L. Love, Shaun Harper, Tyrone Howard, Yvette Latunde, Camika Royal, and Julian Vasquez Heilig, among others.
“Black children deserve more resources, more opportunities, and more people fighting for their brilliance,” said Dr. Rema Reynolds Vassar, founder of CBCE and a professor of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies at Wayne State University. “Our work has never been more urgent than it is now.”
