In this episode we discuss the historical background of Barbara Rose John’s leadership of a student walk out in Farmville, VA in 1951, at a time where segregation divided the nation. I give details on how I taught about Barbara Johns in my US and African American History classrooms, why you should incorporate her into your social studies curriculum and the lessons we can learn from her leadership.
This special episode is from a collaborative webinar with UVA student organizer and activist Zyahna Bryant. In this episode we discuss dismantling systemic racism and how to take anti-racist action in our lives. We also hear questions from students regarding the current state of our nation.
