A Legacy Worth Watching: Join Us for A Fuller Education Virtual Watch Party
March 18, 2026 | 6:00 PM ET | Free Virtual Event
Some names belong in every conversation about Black educational equity in America. Dr. Howard Fuller is one of them.
Civil rights organizer. Labor leader. Milwaukee's school superintendent. Architect of the parent school choice movement. For decades, Dr. Fuller has been an unwavering force in the fight for Black children's right to an excellent education on their terms, in their communities, with their families at the center of every decision.
Now, his extraordinary life and legacy are the subject of a powerful new PBS documentary: A Fuller Education.
And on Wednesday, March 18, you can watch it together with him in the room.
The Center for Black Educator Development is proud to be a partner in A Fuller Education Watch Party & Fireside Discussion, a free virtual event hosted by The Agentic Institute alongside Brightbeam, One Public Media, Freedom to Choose Schools, and Memphis Lift.
Here's how the evening unfolds:
6:00 PM ET — Documentary Screening We'll screen A Fuller Education together, live. If you've already seen the film or plan to catch it on PBS separately, you're warmly invited to join the fireside conversation at 6:00 PM. The stream stays live throughout.
7:00 PM ET — Fireside Conversation with Dr. Fuller Representatives from partner organizations will share reflections on the film, followed by a substantive fireside discussion with Dr. Fuller himself — on his legacy, his choices, and what agency truly looks like when the stakes are highest for Black children and families.
Registration gets you access to the streaming link and a reminder when the panel begins. The space is virtual, but the impact is real. Don't miss it.
A Fuller Education Watch Party & Fireside Discussion is presented by The Agentic Institute in partnership with Brightbeam, One Public Media, Freedom to Choose Schools, the Center for Black Educator Development, and Memphis Lift.
