This year, for the first time, we are eager to welcome applicants from schools of education at colleges and universities in the U.S. We are so pleased to invite your team to join this year’s Network program, and we are also excited to share some new program developments! They developed and taught standards-aligned unit plans that explored how the content and themes from 1619 support their diverse curricula, and then shared their work through digital events and resources. The teams connected as part of Network convenings, reading groups, and collaborative planning sessions. Over the past two years, The 1619 Project Education Network program has engaged 80 teams of educators and administrators working with K-12 classrooms and education programs for carceral facilities in an exploration of these questions over the course of a school year. How can exploration of the essays, creative writing, photography, podcasts, and books that make up The 1619 Project from The New York Times Magazine, support existing curricula, while also helping students evaluate historical research and process current events? How can authentic engagement with media literacy skills and underreported news stories on racial justice help students engage curiously, critically, and empathetically with the world?
