2:40Now PlayingColorado Senate President James Coleman said conversations around how Colorado systems and policies have continued to harm Black Coloradans began even before he and Reps. Leslie Herod and Naquetta Ricks co-sponsored Senate Bill 24-53.
When the bill became law, it created the Black Coloradan Racial Equity Study Commission. The commission works with a research team at History Colorado to conduct the first chronological study of 165 years of harm experienced by Black Coloradans, examining the legacy of slavery and systemic racism and how state-supported policies and practices have shaped access to opportunity.
