"Teaching the Levees" a free resource...

I just learned today that the, Teachers College at Columbia University through the generous support of the Rockefeller Foundation is developing a curriculum that will help teachers teach issues of race and class in America. The curriculum will be directly tied to the Spike Lee movie, When the Levees Broke.

As I have written before in a prior post about the significant injustice that I have witnessed in New Orleans. This curriculum well help remind us of this disaster and the amount of work that still needs to be done, but also make the situation a teachable moment. I recommend that every teacher and administrator sign up for this free resource.

Here is the web link to the official site Teaching The Levees
