On December 3, 2025, the Atlanta Public Schools Board of Education voted to close 16 schools. Every single school is 85–98% Black. Every school serves students in poverty. Every community formally opposed the closures. The board voted yes anyway.

One month later, the same board approved a five-year extension for a predominantly white charter school — without opposition, without debate. Forty days. The same board. Two entirely different standards.

Blacktology exists to ensure the record of that contrast never disappears — and to connect the Atlanta fight to every Black community watching the same playbook run in their city.
