UPCEA Statement on Racial Justice and the Mission of Professional, Continuing, and Online Education

UPCEA and its members are deeply troubled by the recent senseless killing of George Floyd, an unarmed black man in Minneapolis, and the lives taken before him. Many others have been affected in the wake of these tragedies. This, combined with the health care disparities exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, underscore the systemic racism that people of color continue to face in our society.... Challenging times such as these call us to reground and recommit ourselves to our shared principles of equity, diversity, and inclusion.
