We demand investment in education, health and safety of Black people instead of investment in criminalization, imprisonment and harm to Black people. We want investment in Black communities to be driven by Black communities and free from exploitative forces, including prisons, fossil fuels, police, surveillance and exploitative corporations. This includes:
4. State and federal constitutional right to fully funded education, which includes clear articulation of the right to free education for all, special protections for unusual and transgender students, coverage of services, social workers, free health care services (including autonomy of reproductive body), a curriculum that recognizes and addresses the material and cultural needs of students, physical activity and recreation, high-quality food, free childcare, and freedom from unwarranted search, confiscation or arrest.
5. Moving away from industrial multinational use of fossil fuels and investing in community-based sustainable energy solutions
