The Legacy of Racial Injustice | Teaching Channel

Learning about racial injustice and teaching about race takes courage. It is not a simple task to look at our nation’s history and to explore the truth. Films are a powerful teaching tool, and in this course you will watch the documentary, “True Justice: Bryan Stevenson’s Fight for Equality,” which describes, explains, and teaches about the legacy of racial injustice in the Black community during specific times in our nation’s history. As teachers, we must learn about racial injustice in the Black community so we can teach students, so we don’t repeat our mistakes, and so we can work towards healing. In this brave, honest course, teachers will go on an eye-opening exploration of resources that support teaching hard history. Designed for all educators and humans who seek to understand the roots of racism and what we can do to create a brighter future.
