From the Facing History and Ourselves workshop:

"Educators planning to tour the [Choosing to Participate] exhibition are encouraged to attend this workshop to help deepen their students' experience through the exploration of content and related themes."

From the Facing History and Ourselves website:

"This is a two-day workshop for BPS teachers who will be teaching the Civil Rights Movement in their 10th grade US History courses. The workshop will focus on three units: The Murder of Emmett Till, Voting Rights: From Selma to Montgomery, and Desegregation of Boston Schools."

From the Facing History and Ourselves website:

"Explore our resource, Choices in Little Rock, about the desegregation of Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas, in 1957. This resource can be used to teach civics and enrich a study of history and literature."

From the Facing History and Ourselves website:

"Join us as we explore the history of voting in the United States with a special emphasis on the gains and struggles during the civil rights movement. We will showcase Facing History resources that examine the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the Selma March, voter registration drives, the role of non-violent protest and more. We will also investigate the impact of youth in the movement and their role in politics then and now."

From the Facing History and Ourselves website:

"This film [The Reckoning] chronicles the battle for the establishment of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in response to mass atrocities around the world in the late 20th century. The Reckoning follows ICC Prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo and his team for three years across the four continents as he issues arrest warrants for Lord's Resistance Army leaders in Uganda, puts Congolese warlords on trial, shakes up the Colombian justice system, and charges Sudan's President Omar al-Bashir with genocide in Darfur. This film is an important addition to Facing History's collection of classroom resources that deal with questions of justice after genocide.

The workshop is in two parts. Part 1 (4:30-6:30 pm) will be an educator workshop focused on pedagogy. Part 2 (7:00-9:00 pm) will include the film presentation. A light dinner will be served between the two parts."

From the Facing History and Ourselves website:

"Facing History and Ourselves materials help students understand the steps that have led to genocide and collective violence. After confronting these histories, students are often hungry to explore questions of justice and respect for human rights.

We are eager to bring the Facing History and Ourselves network together to share best practices and new resources that look at issues of justice and human rights in the present day. Seeking Common Ground, the Colorado Coalition for Genocide Awareness and Action, and others will share resources and insights, along with an array of new and exciting resources from the Facing History library."

From the Facing History and Ourselves website:

"Facing History is working in close partnership with Skylight Pictures to bring the documentary film The Reckoning: The Battle for the International Criminal Court, and additional film modules into classrooms around the globe.

Educators are invited to join this free online workshop about the International Criminal Court. The workshop will highlight the various ways these films, and the website (ijcentral.org), can be used with students to explore both the history of the International Criminal Court and various questions around justice in a global society."

From Bombingham to Selma, Montgomery to Tuskegee, Alabama's people and places left an indelible mark on the world in the 1950s and 1960s. From Booker T. Washington and George Washington Carver to the Rev. Fred L. Shuttlesworth, Alabama citizens have been at the forefront of the crusade to improve African Americans' lot in life in the United States. Selma's citizens began a march in 1965 to protest the killing of one man. This day became known as Bloody Sunday. Now the citizens of Selma have created a people's museum so the world will not forget those tumultuous days and will remember the people's stories. Teachers in this workshop work with noted scholars, converse with living legends, participate in discussion groups, meet foot soldiers of the movement, and travel to key sites of memory dedicated to the preservation of the history of the modern Civil Rights Movement.
