** Dear John,
------------------------------------------------------------
Young Black organizers who confront oppressive systems have always been met with violence—educators can look at the uprisings of Freedom Summer in 1964 and those in Minneapolis in 2020 for evidence. Despite the pushback they face, Black activists’ work leads to changes in laws and culture. Use these resources ([link removed]) to teach about Freedom Summer and highlight how Black people have asserted their agency in efforts to effect policy change in the United States.

We’ll let you know whenever we update The Moment. Whether it’s lessons on a timely topic, resources for supporting vulnerable students or tips for making it through a tough time of year, we’ll have what you need front and center.

Thanks for all you do for students.
