Northampton mayoral candidates responded to a survey about racial equity and their plans to address racism in schools, policing and the local community.
REAL (Racial Equity and Learning) Northampton is an organization funded by the Northampton Education Foundation that works to create an anti-racist culture in Northampton public schools (NPS). In October, REAL distributed a survey to the mayoral candidates Gina-Louise Sciaara and Marc Warner about their views on racial equity and what they would do to further that agenda if elected. The full questionnaire is available to read on REAL Northampton’s website.
