Leaders of the NAACP and African Methodist Episcopal Zion Churches of the Eastern District continue to encourage other civic, religious, parent and student groups to take part in a mass demonstration Tuesday against the Wake County Board of Education’s planned policy change that they say will lead to resegregated schools.
“It’s important for the community, for the public, if they do not support the school board policies, to continue to voice their opinions,” Yevonne Brannon, chair of the Great Schools in Wake Coalition, said Sunday.
