Racial segregation in schools is a structure and a system made by people that can be dismantled by people. It is more than just residential segregation and it harms more than just those who are segregated.
It has devastating consequences for the segregated, but it harms us all in a myriad of profound ways, politically, economically and morally,

2021 NNER/NCCPEP ANNUAL CONFERENCE
2021 Annual Conference welcoming educators committed to school-university partnerships,
clinical practice, and education in a democracy.
About This Event: On the heels of a global pandemic, worsening climate crisis, and a broader realization of systemic racism, we return to a semblance of pre-pandemic activities yet find we are surrounded by new, emerging questions. Co-hosted by the National Network for Educational Renewal (NNER) and the National Center for Clinical Practice in Educator Preparation (NCCPEP), our 2021 Annual Conference invites all educators to gather again to share common space affirmed by a common purpose. We’ve chosen to not flee from the harshness but to turn to our schools, universities, organizations, and communities and be honest and “open” to the courage and morality integral to the teaching profession.
