SUMMARY:Color of Education 2025 - Preserving Our Legacy: The Power of The Storie We Carry
DESCRIPTION:The Dudley Flood Center for Educational Equity & Opportunity and the Color of Education Guiding Committee are thrilled to invite you to attend Color of Education 2025. The Annual Color of Education Summit brings together educators\, policymakers\, researchers\, students\, parents\, community members\, and other key stakeholders focused on achieving racial equity and eliminating racial disparities in education.\n\nThis year’s theme centers the belief that legacy is not only preserved in history books or institutions—it lives in the stories we carry and share. Educators\, students\, and communities hold powerful narratives that reflect struggle\, resilience\, joy\, and growth. These stories help us understand identity\, build collective purpose\, and spark transformational change—critical components of an equitable public education system and a healthy democracy.\n\nJoin us for two days of powerful conversations\, community-building\, and storytelling that uplift the people and movements shaping education equity across North Carolina and beyond.
