    Tulsa’s black schools unequal to white schools 51-years after integration

    by Nehemiah Frank, Founder & Editor-in-Chief March 10, 2019
    by Nehemiah Frank, Founder & Editor-in-Chief March 10, 2019

    In Tulsa, schools with a large African-American student-population are failing some 51-years after the U.S. Justice Department filed suit against Tulsa Public Schools (TPS) to force a plan for desegregation.

    The lingering and unspoken crisis in Oklahoma

    by Nehemiah Frank, Founder & Editor-in-Chief February 27, 2019
    by Nehemiah Frank, Founder & Editor-in-Chief February 27, 2019

    Segregated and unequal schools replaced the anti-literacy laws that thrived during ‘legal’ institutionalized chattel slavery. When Brown v. Board of Education ruled ‘segregation’ unconstitutional, academic-intellectual segregation replaced Jim Crow.

    Fifty Years After Kerner, the Nation Is Still Separate and Unequal, But It Doesn’t Have to Be This Way

    by The Black Wall Street Times May 25, 2018
    by The Black Wall Street Times May 25, 2018

    A high-quality, well-rounded education—one that includes mathematics and reading as well as the sciences, social studies and civics, world languages, physical education, and the arts—prepares our children to thrive in college and careers, and as engaged members of our democratic society. And yet, students of color and students from low-income families continuously are denied their right to learn because we choose, as a society, to provide them with less.

    A black teacher’s prayer

    by Nehemiah Frank, Founder & Editor-in-Chief May 17, 2018
    by Nehemiah Frank, Founder & Editor-in-Chief May 17, 2018

    I pray that my students will be so lucky enough to arrive in a classroom with a culturally competent teacher who looks like them and is passionately and unapologetically black. And should they not land in a class with a teacher who does not share the same racial ancestry, my next prayer is that they will encounter a benevolent teacher who will love and celebrate them as I have done. I pray they will gain a wonderful pedagogue or role model who will tell them that the sky is the limit for them and that they can be whatever their heart so desires.

    The Purposeful Silencing of Black Women in Educational Leadership 

    by The Black Wall Street Times February 8, 2018
    by The Black Wall Street Times February 8, 2018

    “Aggressive.”

    “Strong-willed.”

    “Passionate.”

    — have been words falsely labeled as simple descriptors when in actuality, they are evidence of the continued sexism and racism that plagues our society. Women in leadership have always faced adversity and are still seen as second-rate citizens in our country. We see this play out on a national level, but we also see this through daily interactions with those of privilege.

    On the pulse of integration, Black Wall Street experiences black academic and economic decline 

    by Nehemiah Frank, Founder & Editor-in-Chief February 5, 2018
    by Nehemiah Frank, Founder & Editor-in-Chief February 5, 2018

    A public school meeting elevates the harsh existence of a divided Tulsa and the unfortunate, long-lasting tale — how two cities persist sixty-four years after Brown v. Board of Education (whereby, TPS integrated in the 1970s) and nearly ninety-seven years after the 1921 Tulsa Massacre.
