Bridge is a conceptual organization created to be part of the solution to the racial divide in the education system. This is a research-based project that aims to create integration and unity through community connection, understanding, and education. This program involves collaborative curriculum designed to teach students of all ages, colors, identities, and backgrounds what it means to create unity amidst a racial divide.
One of the main strategies of this program involves students from different schools, with different racial identities and backgrounds, writing back-and-forth to each other as an educational and relational tool. Partnering with educators in the classroom and providing supplemental materials and supplies is another component that alleviates financial stress because of poor funding. The ultimate goal of programs such as this is not to immediately solve issues like racial segregation or the achievement gap in education, but to create meaningful solutions one step at a time.
