About this Event
On this episode of VIRAL Debates, opposing voices examine whether Newark’s educational system is truly meeting the needs of Black children — or leaving too many behind. Through high-level discourse, panelists explore disparities in literacy, school funding, discipline policies, classroom culture, academic achievement, and the broader social realities shaping the lives of Black students throughout Newark.
Are Newark schools cultivating confident, well-prepared young people equipped to compete in the future — or are systemic challenges continuing to limit opportunity for the city’s children? And if the system is falling short, what would a new approach look like?
Join us for a thoughtful, unapologetic, and intellectually charged conversation examining one of the most urgent questions facing Black families and urban education today.
