Pledge to Teach Truth Day of Action MAC
This National call for action is being made by the Zinn education Project coordinated by Re-thinking Schools and Teaching for Change:. www.zinnedproject.org
Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/ZinnEducationProject
This is a Day of Action to raise awareness of the dangers of suppressing historical elements, such as racism.
Not acknowledging the country’s actual history, including racism and other oppression, is deception, not education. Teaching young people about centuries of resistance to that oppression is empowering. Resistance has always been multiracial, multiethnic, and built across lines of gender and class. Understanding this can be an incredible and powerful source of unity for all.
