Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My students have been working on ways that they can be an anti-racist. The students have read Stamped by Jason Reynolds, Ibram X. Kendi and This Book Is Anti-Racist by Tiffany Jewell and Aurelia Durand.
This work book will allow students to further there growth in anti-racist action and continue to grow into the change makers.
Antiracism is not a destination but a journey—one that takes deliberate, consistent work. Dr. Ibram X. Kendi's concept of antiracism has changed the way we talk about race, equality, and justice in America, pointing us toward new ways of thinking about ourselves and our society. Young people must be included in conversations on race, which is why Dr. Kendi has created this workbook with bestselling YA author Nic Stone for readers age twelve and up.
Reflection questions include:
Have you ever tried to change something about yourself to fit in? Did it work? Why or why not?
How does the word racist feel when you hear or say it? Is it a weapon or a descriptor? Why?
Why is empathy an important tool for any antiracist's toolbox?
