✅ True. In February 2021, a Tennessee principal apologized after backlash to her decision to make “All Lives Matter” the school’s theme for Black History Month.
Yesterday, I sent the regular newsletter providing updates to our families as we return to in-person learning this week. As part of that newsletter, I highlighted February as Black History Month with a theme of “All Lives Matter.” I want to apologize for not more fully considering the context of that theme, as my inspiration for it was taken from a mural within our school that states “Where Every Child Matters.
My father, Dr. Virgil J. Caldwell, was a local pastor and civil rights leader. I had the opportunity to experience firsthand the fight for equality. Additionally, both of my parents were educators, so I learned at a young age the importance of access to high-quality education. The school mural that said “Where Every Child Matters” was also shared in the original email when Drake announced the “All Lives Matter” theme for February.about “African American History Month” that reads: “Visit the ERMS Library Site to Learn about a new African American Hero and work of Literature each Week of African American History Month!”
