Hi John,

Only three days remain to pre-order the “Listen to Black Women” cut-out necklace, our second collaboration with Brevity Jewelry. This piece is more than just an accessory - it is a call to elevate Black voices at the forefront of education justice. Their insights and leadership are key to building more equitable communities, and this is your call to listen and act.

Supporting this collaboration and by extension our work means taking a stand for education justice and the well-being of our communities. Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of the movement while supporting AQE’s mission - 25% of each purchase directly funds our work to create a more equitably funded public education system in New York State. With the holidays approaching, it’s a great gift for yourself or a friend.

Listen, act, and join us in driving meaningful change in the lives of our young people. Help us spread the word by sharing this opportunity with your networks (see here, on X and Instagram). Let’s keep amplifying the voices that need to be heard most.

Thank you for being a part of this work.

In solidarity,

Zakiyah Shaakir-Ansari
Co-Executive Director
