Friend,
The SPLC's Learning for Justice (LFJ) program has a new
professional learning opportunity for educators: Teaching Hard History
Professional Learning Cohorts
[link removed]
. The inaugural cohorts enable educators to learn together with their
peers and LFJ to build the knowledge and skills to lead our collective
endeavor of teaching young people honest history.
We're hoping educators in the South will join our cohorts, so
we're giving preference to applications from educators in
Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi.
The cohorts will engage with LFJ's Teaching Hard History:
American Slavery framework

and learn how to use it to enrich their lessons on American
enslavement, build students' civic engagement and critical
thinking and deepen their mindsets around inclusion and empathy.
THH Cohorts will provide educators, free of charge, the chance to
deeply engage with Teaching Hard History resources, collaborate with
LFJ staff and other cohort members across the country and gain
insights and feedback on implementation. There will be two cohorts: an
elementary (K-5) cohort and a secondary (6-12) cohort. After three
months of learning in community, each educator will have an
opportunity to showcase their work virtually to a national audience.
The deadline to apply is Dec. 3. The cohort sessions are set to begin
in January.
Educators can explore the syllabus, check out the FAQs and submit
their applications here

Your friends at the Southern Poverty Law Center
