Black Agenda Radio · IntegrateNYC Lawsuit Seeks to End Segregation in New York City Schools

A first-of-its-kind lawsuit asserting a right to an antiracist education under the New York State Constitution, filed against New York State and City, will move forward under a ruling by a state appellate court. In the lawsuit, IntegrateNYC, students, and community groups – represented by Public Counsel and the Peer Defense Project – challenge policies that entrench segregation and drive racial inequity in the New York City public school system. We are joined by Omari Soulfinger, Co-Executive Director and Coach of IntegrateNYC and Avery, a Youth Director at IntegrateNYC. They join us from New York City to discuss this lawsuit.
