Hate motivated bullying has no place in schools. We demand that the KHSD administration uphold their duty by complying with CA Education Code 218 & create a safe and healthy environment for our LGBTQIA+ students and families.
Celebrations are in order as President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act. This day is more than a day of celebration, but also a national acknowledgement of our shared humanity and the road to healing and equity we must all commit to. Let’s continue looking back at our history to inform our present because we can not afford to stop fighting for equity for all.

“Today’s three guilty verdicts of Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd offer us hope that change is possible. While we breathe a collective sigh of relief, the solutions our communities need must be based in collective action and policy. Transformational solutions are rooted in true people power with the enactment of social, racial and economic justice policies. It will require civic engagement, advocacy and accountability of our public officials to end systemic racism. Millions across our country and around the world marched in protest to denounce Mr. Floyd’s murder. The marching and non-violent organizing must continue as we grieve the ongoing slayings of Black, and Brown people at the hands of the police. While we pause to honor the pain of George Floyd’s family today, our commitment to our Black, Indigenous People of Color communities is an explicit promise to work together to end injustice.” – Camila Chavez, DHF Executive Director & Dolores Huerta, Founder & President of the Dolores Huerta Foundation
