Open to: All Full-Time Pre K-12 Classroom Teachers
Opportunity at a Glance: What does the complexity of structural inequality and solidarity movements mean for relations among people of color? During the first session with Stony Brook University professor Shobana Shankar, we will explore this vexing problem through the work of M.K. Gandhi in South Africa and W.E.B Dubois in the U.S., and in the lives of lesser-known figures.
During the In second session, participants will exchange ideas with other brilliant teachers. In addition, participants are assigned a small amount of homework to prepare for each session.
CTLE-credit is available. This program is free for public and charter school teachers, and participants are selected by application and nomination.
