As thousands of students joined demonstrations across the country against police abuse, Education Week spoke with 10 Black high school students from every corner of the US about how issues of race and racism should be handled in schools.

The series features videos of recorded conversations where students tell educators what they need in schools, how race should be discussed in classrooms, what they think about security and police presence in schools and other pertinent topics. This resource provides an opportunity for educators to hear from students directly.
