1619 Project Unit: Black Educational Resistance & Autonomy
Posted by Pulitzer Center on April 2, 2024
In this unit, students expand their knowledge of Black history and create a textbook chapter that shares information about a local African-American historical site.
Lesson Summary: Students expand their knowledge of U.S. history through analysis of texts centering the experiences of Black Americans and engaging with local research on Reconstruction-era historical site Promise Land in order to draft a textbook chapter for elementary students that accurately tells the story of Promise Land and reflects on processes all students can take to ensure Black history is written, told, and disseminated justly.
