THREAD—A timely reminder and non-exhaustive list on why we need racial #EquityInECE:

1. Pathologizing Blackness starts early— Black preschoolers make up only 18% of preschool enrollment yet account for 42% of suspensions. americanprogress.org/issues/early-c…
2. If a child is Black & disabled, challenges with care are likely compounded. Preschoolers with #disabilities are 14.5X more likely to be suspended or expelled than their typically developing peers. Racial justice & disability justice are linked. ampr.gs/2B64bAS
3. In general, Black, Latinx & indigenous families are more likely to face greater barriers to care like inaccessible costs and grapple with #ChildCareDeserts due to decades upon decades of occupational and residential segregation. #Movement4ChildCare
