Teaching the Civil Rights Movement
Announcing LFJ’s Newest Curriculum
[link removed]

If young people are to make the vision of a just and peaceful world a reality, we must give them the tools to build a strong multiracial democracy—and those tools include an accurate, comprehensive and inclusive history of the United States.

We are thrilled to introduce Teaching the Civil Rights Movement ([link removed]) , our newest curriculum, which begins in 1877 with Reconstruction and continues the narrative of the movement for equality and civil rights to the present. At this critical moment in which states and districts are attempting to censor discussions of race and racism in U.S. history, this curriculum is an essential resource.
