The Voices: A Library Lecture Series committee is pleased to present “Crisis in Black Education” by Dr. Kimberly Young Wilkins on Tuesday, Feb. 6, at 10 a.m. in the BTC Auditorium.
The crisis in black education has increased significantly in urban neighborhoods. Public schools lack resources, endure overcrowding, exhibit a racial achievement gap, and confront policies that fail to deliver substantive opportunities. Dr. Wilkins, assistant commissioner for innovation and school reform in the New York State Education Department, will speak about her vast personal experiences as an African American educator.
