We are thrilled to announce the 2024–2025 Teach the Black Freedom Struggle season of online classes — a series unlike any other professional development.
This approach to professional development recognizes teachers as intellectuals and brings people together from across the country to deepen their understanding of the vital history of the Black Freedom Struggle.
These classes focus on uncovering the Black history that we all should have been taught and equip teachers with the knowledge to bring these lessons into classrooms.
Unlike many other online courses, these classes give educators an opportunity to meet with one another in breakout rooms, share strategy across classroom contexts, and discuss how to apply the information with other educators dedicated to social justice.
This new season of classes focuses on the theme of organizing resistance to anti-Blackness, with classes covering powerful subjects, including resistance to racist education, racism and resistance in the North, prison resistance, Reconstruction, transportation, stories of Black Panther women, and more.
These interactive classes provide participants space to reflect, engage, and share insights, fostering a community of antiracist educators committed to teaching truthfully. Since launching these during the isolation of the COVID quarantine, this remarkable series has grown into a learning network dedicated to social justice and collective action.
Register today to reinvigorate your practice of teaching critically about issues of race, justice, and equity.
Join us one Monday a month to be part of this growing community.
