I am pleased to be part of a professional development workshop for Chicago public school teachers on the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans and the teaching of Asian American history. I will present a session introducing teachers to critical themes in Asian American history. This program is sponsored by Facing History & Ourselves in support of the implementation of the TEAACH (Teaching Equitable Asian American Community History) Act, which makes Illinois the first state to require Asian American history be taught in public schools.
Please register and/or pass it along to those you know who may be interested in participating:
