NAACP Calls on Biden Administration to Cancel Student Debt

The student debt crisis has a disproportionate impact on Black borrowers and their families. Across all racial groups, Black borrowers hold the most student loan debt despite also being consistently underserved by post- secondary institutions. 

To appreciate the racial wealth gap, it is first important to understand the disparity in important federal policies that helped create the current gaps in college degree attainment. 

Read the report: Student Debt and Racial Equity.

We must continue to apply pressure and demand that the leaders elected by the movement we built make due on racial equity and ensure equitable and affordable pathways for education.
