In July 2017, fifteen middle and high school English and social studies teachers from across the state of Mississippi participated in a teaching institute at\u00a0Tougaloo College\u00a0(in the historic Woodworth Chapel) on the Black Freedom Struggle in Mississippi. Not only did teachers learn hidden history and interactive teaching strategies, they also built relationships among themselves to sustain and inform their teaching about the true history of the Civil Rights Movement.<\/p>\n

Modeled on the philosophy of the\u00a0Mississippi Freedom Schools, the curriculum throughout the week was participatory with a focus on examining history with a connection to issues of race and equity in society today \u2026 The teachers viewed and discussed key films (and film clips), introduced by SNCC veteran and filmmaker Judy Richardson. These included\u00a0Eyes on the Prize,\u00a0Freedom Song,\u00a0Come Hell or High Water: The Battle for Turkey Creek,\u00a0Dirt and Deeds in Mississippi, and\u00a0The Black Press: Soldiers Without Swords.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
