Students & teachers come together with professors, community members & others to create content about Omaha's history. It's part of Making Invisible Histories Visible. During #BlackHistoryMonth, we're looking back on projects done by students: ops.org/Page/1648

Today is Juneteenth—a day for celebration and remembrance that should be part of our collective knowledge of freedom struggles in this country. May our educators and youth continue the fight to ensure that the promise of freedom is delivered. tolerance.org/magazine/happy…

Many educators are trying to meet this moment. Others are looking for a better understanding of racism and antiracism. This collection has many resources that can help educators plan conversations with young people—and learn more themselves. padlet.com/nicolethelibraria…

Educators! This conference is online for 2020 and has been some of the most influential PD I've done two years in a row. @DrLaGarrettKing and his team have challenged me and taught me and made me a better ELA educator and human.

Students need to learn about racial oppression, but educators also need to ensure that narratives of trauma aren't the only Black history students learn. These resources can help you celebrate the diversity of Black experience—in February and year-round. t-t.site/38aQamR
