Mr. Brooks had been enduring subtle, racially motivated harassment from a group of students for months. When he reported the incidents, the administration downplayed the severity, leaving him feeling isolated and vulnerable. Stand with Teachers took his story seriously. They provided him with resources, connected him with civil rights advocates, and facilitated anti-bias training for the school’s staff and students. Mr. Brooks, once silenced by fear, found his voice with the support of Stand with Teachers. The school climate improved dramatically, and Mr. Brooks felt hopeful for the first time in months.
