Tools for Anti-Racist Teaching: A Virtual Professional Learning Series from PBS Teacher
Educators are acutely aware of the impact of systemic racism and the inequities that exist in the education system. Because of this, teachers are uniquely positioned to create immediate, positive change in the fight against anti-Black racism. In this four-part series, teachers will explore tools for anti-racist teaching and will consider the ways to use media and media literacy to deepen our understanding of systemic racism. This series is designed to introduce curated anti-racism resources, support learnings of anti-Black racism, share innovative ways to integrate media into inclusive teaching practices and amplify your Black students’ voices and experiences. By attending, teachers will reflect on systemic oppression within education, and leave with new tools and ideas for creating lasting change in the classroom. July 21, 23, 28 and 30 at noon. Register online.
