Thereauthorization presents an opportunity to center equity and justice and revitalize the civil rights aspects of the law. The authors review recent studies about the myriad ways the COVID-19 pandemic affected students, teachers and school systems and situates the reauthorization within the broader political context, including federal aid to states and districts during the pandemic. The authors present overarching policy recommendations: (1) a restructuring of the law’s titles to focus on students, teachers, and systems (i.e. schools and districts); (2) a focus on the principles of racial equity, an ecosystem approach to serve students’ needs across policy silos (i.e., housing and health),  \nand a focus on research evidence; (3) policy targets for students; (4) policy targets for educators, including professional renewal and retention; (5) policy targets for the education system as a whole, including a focus on fiscal equity and facilitating regional approaches to cross-sector collaborations. The article presents a coherent conceptual framework for a redesign of ESEA with an emphasis on equity, evidence use, and ecosystems that is argued would directly address the needs of students, teachers, and systems.  \nKeywords: race-conscious policy; federal policy; civil rights; education politics  \nCentrar los derechos civiles en la reautorización de ESEA: Un marco equitativo, ecológico y basado en evidencia  \nResumen: Este artículo considera la reautorización de la Ley de Educación Básica y Media (ESEA) a la luz de las inequidades educativas actuales y el impacto de la pandemia.
