Description
The second edition of Putting the Movement Back Into Civil Rights Teaching offers lessons, essays, articles, primary documents, and poetry to help K–12 educators move beyond a “heroes and holidays” approach to teaching about the Civil Rights Movement. The content addresses the themes of women, youth, organizing, culture, institutional racism, and the interconnectedness of social movements. The first edition was awarded the 2004 Philip C. Chinn Multicultural Book Award.
The companion website, CivilRightsTeaching.org, offers handouts and additional resources.
