Equity 911: Framing Educational Equity As A National Emergency, Larissa Malone Phd Sep 2020

Equity 911: Framing Educational Equity As A National Emergency, Larissa Malone Phd

Faculty Publications

This paper considers equity as a crisis faced in classrooms across America. As such, an emergency framework is utilized to propose an approach that is apropos to the intense urgency a crisis requires. Using the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s National Planning Frameworks and their guiding principles, a survey of equity topics is discussed. In doing so, it is concluded that the level of inequity currently allowed in the field of education must be honestly assessed and a comprehensive plan that engages multiple stakeholders must be put in place for justice to be fully realized.
