PART 2 of 2
In January 2012, Tucson Unified School District's (TUSD) renowned and highly successful Raza Studies Program was shut down. The program was finally eliminated after a prolonged, brutal campaign to demonize the students, the teachers and Tucson Arizona's Mexican American community; the latest of a long history of cultural genocide enacted against Mexican Americans and indigenous people in the United States. In this program, we explore why the program was viciously attacked and shut down by unpacking the way that racism and white supremacy are playing out in this situation.

We hear more about the devastating impact the shutting down of this program has had on teachers, students and community members in Tucson while also looking at the inspiring resistance movement against this insidious assault, comprised of students, parents, teachers and community members - along with a growing base of allies far beyond the borders of the state of Arizona.
