February Year of Purpose

UNAPOLOGETICALLY BLACK DAY - FEBRUARY 18TH - BLACKLIVESMATTERATSCHOOL.COM
The Uprising for Black lives has prompted the Black Lives Matter at School movement to expand its proposed activities to a “Year of Purpose,” in addition to the annual Week of Action held during the first week of February. The centerpiece of the Year of Purpose is asking educators to reflect on their own work in relationship to antiracist pedagogy and abolitionist practice, persistently challenging themselves to center Black lives in their classrooms. In addition, educators will be asked to participate in intentional days of action throughout the school year uplifting different intersectional themes vital to making Black lives matter in schools, communities, and beyond (see the days of action at: https://www.blacklivesmatteratschool.com/year-of-purpose.html
