Live from Queens, Part 1: The Chancellor

Banks was appointed by Mayor Eric Adams and is just finishing his first year on the job.</p><p>The previous leadership of the NYC DOE had supported diversity planning processes in five school districts across the city, including District 28, the subject of School Colors Season 2. Once Covid-19 hit New York, these diversity plans fizzled out, but they were never officially cancelled. So we started by asking Chancellor Banks if he thought diversity planning would ever come back — and if not, why not?</p><p>This event was co-produced with <a href="https://www.thecity.nyc" target="_blank">The CITY</a> and <a href="https://ny.chalkbeat.org" target="_blank">Chalkbeat New York</a>, and moderated by Chalkbeat’s Reema Amin.</p>
