Students meet those who advocated for reparations, those who received them, and those who did not. They gain a greater understanding of the horizon of possible reparative policies and enough examples to begin to articulate their own beliefs about the appropriate context, goal, and form of reparations.

This lesson helps students prepare to study the modern debate over reparations   ----   especially for African Americans. A lesson on HB 40 and reparations for African Americans is coming soon.

This Friday, September 20, students will kick off a week of action with a
global climate strike. We are watching the birth of a new mass movement. In solidarity, the Zinn Education Project invites you
to pledge to teach climate justice.

Will you be attending any of these events?
If so, come by our booth and check out our workshops.

Submit your classroom story about teaching with a Zinn Education Project climate justice lesson or Reconstruction history lesson and
we will send you a free book.
