Be the change
Empathize
Show compassion and welcome all walks of life into your learning. We are all learning at different paces, but it is important we come together. Share resources, viewpoints, and understanding.
Empower
Take meaningful action based on your learnings to empower your students, classmates, colleagues, friends, and family members.
Resources to support your learning
We’ve partnered with Teaching Tolerance, Newsela, The New York Times’s 1619 Project, NPR, and other leading educators to support you in learning more about America’s history. Organized by enduring themes critical to American history, check out these resources to learn more about the history of race, slavery, and what it means to be American in 2020.
