Oakland school closures disproportionately affect Black students, lawsuit says 

They’re “trying to push Black students into the school-to-prison pipeline,” said a parent. “They don’t care about educating our kids.”

The suit implores Attorney General Rob Bonta to investigate a new school closure plan from the Oakland Unified School District, one the ACLU says disproportionately impacts Black students and their families.
