The Rev. Phyllis Harris of Mount Pisgah A.M.E. Church in Philadelphia volunteers in a kindergarten class at Alain Locke Elementary School every Thursday. She has a passion for education and was one of the leaders of the Rally for Fair Funding on Wednesday in Harrisburg.
“We’re all here in God’s eyes, so we should get equal funding,” she said.
“I believe that this [inequitable funding] is the new form of systematic chains. … The new plantation here is education.”
