Bus route 15 passes through Bayview-Hunters Point: a neighborhood of endless warehouses, a single grocery store amidst a plethora of liquor shops, littered streets and the occasional abandoned shopping cart filled with belongings obstructing the road. In 1963, 80% of the community was Black. Known as “Little Harlem,” it was the epicenter of Black culture, resilience and solidarity. Today, it still is, with a Black population of 23% — the largest in the city. However, the area wasn’t always disenfranchised; it underwent profound changes following World War II and during the Civil Rights Movement, as systemic redlining dismantled economic opportunities. The solution is education; we must fundamentally revolutionize curriculum for marginalized communities to resolve the conventional model that fails to confront inequities that disproportionately disadvantage impoverished students.  ✍️: Jacqueline Ishimoto 📸: Neal Wong (n.neeaall) #sfsu #sfstate #ggxnews #bayview #hunterspoint
