"The goal of education is the advancement of knowledge and the dissemination of truth."
John Fitzgerald Kennedy On Saturday, October 25, 2025, the Delaware County Black Caucus held its Annual Symposium, with this year's theme, Educational "Ending Apartheid" a topic relevant to our country today.
In a hard-hitting opening statement, Senator Anthony Williams said, "When the President proceeds to strip the Department of Civil Rights and is now attacking voting rights... Black people, wake up. You cannot simply go to the supermarket on Saturday; you cannot just sit at home, hoping things will change. ICE will be coming after our families in the not-too-distant future. They won't deport us, they'll just remove us, and the blueprint laid by Nazis Germany is now in a plan called 2025. It is written what they are going to do to us."
"So understand, Delaware County Black Caucus, we're conducting ourselves as if everything is normal, it is not. The house is on fire and we are in it, and by the way, they're blocking all escape routes as we speak. The question is whether we're going to mobilize to fight it," further remarked Williams.
Current and former education professionals, community stakeholders, and parents gathered to hear keynote speaker Ms. Joyce Abbott, M.A., share her views and experiences on educational apartheid.
