To Be At Risk

TO BE AT RISK is a set of curricula being used in ELA and Art classes to explore the implications of the Trayvon Martin tragedy and to explore issues around racial profiling and systemic racism. In the ELA classes, students will explore relationships between Black and Brown communities and policing, racial profiling, and systemic racism. Students will be writing and reflecting throughout the daily activities. The unit will culminate in a piece of editorial or persuasive writing that uses the lens of the Trayvon Martin tragedy to address issues of racial justice.
