Education
Public education is supposed to be the great equalizer providing opportunities for all regardless of class or race. However, studies document that young people of color or from low-income families have fewer opportunities for a quality education. Experts have advocated for a range of ways to improve public education, including smaller classes, teacher accountability, school vouchers and better technology.
