17th Annual Northwest Teaching for Social Justice Conference

Many in our schools feel unsafe or unwelcome, particularly in this time of increased hate speech, xenophobia, and deportations. In social justice classrooms, we want to critique the world, but also take hopeful action to create the world students deserve. Participants will examine model texts and articles, write welcome poems to hang up in their schools, and draw on poems for further action that can create safe, inclusive school communities.
