Putting the Movement Back into Civil Rights Teaching
Published by Teaching for Change
As one of the most commonly taught stories of people’s struggles for social justice, the Civil Rights Movement has the capacity to help students develop a critical analysis of United States history and strategies for change. However, the empowering potential is often lost in a trivial pursuit of names and dates. Putting the Movement Back into Civil Rights Teaching, published by Teaching for Change and PRRAC, provides lessons and articles for K-12 educators on how to go beyond a heroes approach to the Civil Rights Movement.
Putting the Movement Back into Civil Rights Teaching won the 2004 Philip C. Chinn Multicultural Book Award by the National Association for Multicultural Education (NAME).
