This book highlights the work of Rise for Racial Justice, an
organization that launched a public racial literacy campaign in
2020 when the nation's interest in exploring the history and
present reality of anti-Black police violence was at a high.
Protests following the murder of George Floyd focused the public's
attention on anti-Black racism, sparking calls for racial justice.
There was a resulting demand for antiracism training to help make
sense of the ongoing twin pandemics of anti-Black racism and White
supremacy. This book makes a unique contribution to the discussion
about antiracism training for K-12 school communities. In Rise for
Racial Justice: How to Talk About Race With Schools and
Communities, the authors draw on the experiences of antiracism
facilitators as they teach about race, racism, and racial justice.
This book shares curricula, pedagogical strategies, tools, and
practices that support the learning and engagement of educators and
youth learners. Book Features: Examples of curricula and suggested
pedagogy for antiracism training geared toward teachers and other
adults in leadership and/or parenting roles. Tools to help school
communities talk about race and racism, as well as practices for
pursuing racial justice. Practical, narrative-based advice about
the opportunities and challenges of engaging in antiracism
training.
It is the summer of 1962 and Harv Sullivan has delivered his family
to Hyannis Port's elite Honeysuckle Inn where each family member
will embark on a month long journey revolving around Harv's
unwavering American dream: to live like a Kennedy. Harv's son,
Jack, soon discovers that the glossy Honeysuckle Inn brochure fails
to capture what happens behind the scenes of the affluent men and
women socializing at the clambakes and cocktail parties. And the
lavish bedroom photos are erased clean of the darkness that even
the wealthiest of families come to know. While the brochure's
parting guest photo reads: See you next summer beneath a throng of
beaming faces, not every guest leaves the Honeysuckle with a smile,
though a few will fight to leave with integrity. For Jack, the
Honeysuckle Inn has been made bearable by a deep and unexpected
friendship with a blithe Southern blonde, Isabelle Whitney. But his
friendship with Isabelle is just the beginning of what Jack
discovers that summer. Join him on the Cape, if only in your
imagination, as you read a story that begins with people striving
to make grand impressions, and ends with Jack's life having been
impressed upon in the most meaningful ways, through friends turned
family, through powerful first love, and through a startling loss.
