LIBERATE HISTORY: CONNECTING THEMES OF HOLOCAUST EDUCATION AND AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY

Stories of freedom, resistance, resilience, and agency can be seen throughout history, and are particularly powerful narratives in Holocaust and African American history. The pedagogy for teaching each unique history is intertwined, with the need to focus on the human story, center the experience of the individual, and promote civic engagement. During this webinar, special guest Demetrius Hobson from Liberate History, an organization that curates African American History lessons to align to the CCSS, Cooperative Learning Strategies, and Five Tenets of Critical Race Theory, will highlight resources to support classroom instruction and increase student understanding of African American history in the U.S. Participants will also engage in conversation with Echoes & Reflections Deputy Director Melissa Mott about practical connections to Holocaust education.
