What will your students say they were taught during this time of change and awareness?
How will you address the missing voices of our history in our culture? How will you answer students that ask why they did not learn about Blacks, Indigenous and other people of color in their textbooks? The way we taught in the past has NEVER answered these burning questions.
The ABC’s of Canadian Black History Kit helps you address the historic and current inequalities that 2020’s racial tension are bringing into focus. Containing 26 carefully designed lesson plans, the Kit fosters awareness and acknowledges the presence and contributions of Black Canadians. The Kit may help you reach that student who does not see anyone who looks like her in her studies. Help her to understand that “if she can see it, she can be it”.
Let your legacy of awareness and inclusion be the one that this student, and her classmates, carry forward.
