Celebrating Black History Month

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

When students have access to information, resources and materials, including books, they become equipped with the tools needed to change the world. The mission is to ensure that students are identifying the Birth-to-Prison pipeline, learning its historical and modern day harms while creating solutions that help to transform the way we view the criminal and juvenile justice systems.

Students will receive a copy of the book, Just Mercy; a story that speaks to ones heart and mind, empowering all to STAND against systemic and social harms and stand up for each and every human.
