Educational Equity Reporter

Position:

This reporter is a key part of MFP's new Education Equity Solutions Lab team, doing deep-dive reporting and data comparison/gathering in communities across Mississippi to interrogate inequitable education systems, the historic reasons those systemic barriers exist, and report those causes as well as potential solutions that community members tell us they need or that reporting reveals as potential solutions. The reporting will compare and contrast education realities in various counties in Mississippi to reveal why those inequities exist and what can be done about them beyond partisan solutions that have not previously worked. A prototype the team will build on is our "(In)equities and Resilience: Black Women, Systemic Barriers and COVID-19" project at mfp.ms/bwc (see Noxubee project).
