As we prepare for Leah Rothstein's keynote at SCACED's upcoming conference, Opportunity SC: 2024, we invite you to join us as we dive into the new book 'Just Action: How to Challenge Segregation Enacted Under the Color of Law', co-written by Leah Rothstein & Richard Rothstein.

In 'The Color of Law,' Richard Rothstein dismantles the myth of de facto segregation, revealing how government policies at all levels actively created and enforced segregation in our communities. Learn more about the 'The Color of Law' HERE​ and watch the brief film 'Segregated by Design' HERE​.

Now, 'Just Action' builds upon this foundation, offering a roadmap for undoing the damage wrought by decades of segregation. It provides the tools and strategies needed to turn activism into meaningful progress. From grassroots organizing to advocacy and legal action, 'Just Action' empowers readers to become agents of change in their own communities. Learn more about 'Just Action' HERE​.
