Defining Democracy Workshop: Defending American Democracy

The Defining Democracy series is made up of three parts that will equip educators with resources and strategies for exploring the theme of American democracy in their classrooms and communities and reward them for sharing impact from the models that work well. Throughout the series, go beyond simply marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence by utilizing The 1619 Project to interrogate historical narratives, acknowledge Black Americans’ contributions to American history, and understand the lasting legacies of slavery in our democracy today.
