Black lives matters year of purpose q#1 by Carlson, India K https://padlet.com/ikcarlson/otz1mioqn8syr0lj  How are the voices, accomplishments, and successes of Black folx uplifted in [our school's] lessons, units, and curriculum? Rather than focus on singular events or individuals, does [our school] highlight the everyday actions and community organizing that will lead to change? en-us 2020-10-13 21:52:47 UTC 2020-10-14 19:06:26 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/ikcarlson/otz1mioqn8syr0lj/wish/829911615 ap history and language arts (history mainly in my experience) is very euro/white-centric, but i've noticed over the past year core history and la classes doing work to fix that]]> 2020-10-14 18:48:39 UTC https://padlet.com/ikcarlson/otz1mioqn8syr0lj/wish/829911615 https://padlet.com/ikcarlson/otz1mioqn8syr0lj/wish/829912024 I think in some curriculms black voices are not well reperisted in text. ]]> 2020-10-14 18:48:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ikcarlson/otz1mioqn8syr0lj/wish/829912024 Black voices uplifted in school https://padlet.com/ikcarlson/otz1mioqn8syr0lj/wish/829912155 I feel like in the past my school has really only recognized and celebrated black voices during Black History Month. While that is a decent start it needs to be something that is done each and everyday. Our school is now doing a better job that they are doing these teams meetings more regularly. However that does not magically fix the injustices in not only our world but our school and community.]]> 2020-10-14 18:48:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ikcarlson/otz1mioqn8syr0lj/wish/829912155 We have not accomplished success in all listed but we are definitely working toward implementing success stories. https://padlet.com/ikcarlson/otz1mioqn8syr0lj/wish/829912286 More work is needed from us All!

My co-teacher, Kristina Katrel, and I work to avoid single-story narratives about a specific culture in our work as World Literature teachers by reaching outside of the traditional World Literature "canon" to find lesser heard voices.  ]]> 2020-10-14 18:49:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ikcarlson/otz1mioqn8syr0lj/wish/829913614 https://padlet.com/ikcarlson/otz1mioqn8syr0lj/wish/829917785 Ballard does a good job of discussing current situations that happen in our society.
