Thanks Dr. Gibson-Alonso

😂😂

Good Story

This is an incredibly "woke" perspective you are sharing. Thank you.

THANK YOU, for your openness and willingness to understand the truth and speak out against injustices! This is so necessary in these times! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙏🏽

I am going to need to go back watch this again for some great quotes and perspectives, and pause to jot down some notes to share with others

The moral obligation of anti-racism... YES!!!

I am thinking the same thing! @lesleycox

This is good for me to hear as a white person. You're echoing a lot of what I'm learning and re-learning as I read "White Fragility." Thanks.

A "social justice hobbyist" I gotta use that one!

Thank you for sharing your learning journey on racial relations. I'm learning my role in all this as a Filipino-American married to a Caucasian man, raising my son in this world.

It’s not enough to NOT be racist; but you must be ANTI-Racist! That’s a gem right there!

AMEN! P PEACE MAKER, Instead of just a Peace Keeper! Dr. Jamison you are Amazing! Thank you for your Transparency and work in the effort!

“All lives Matter” argument

If black lives don't matter, all lives can't

Thanks for sharing systemic truth

Well said @Dr. Andrea Oliver!!!

From Virginia Parra - I'm reading the book, White Fragility, which augments everything Dr. Janson speaks about. As a white person, so many want to be part of the process and support the movement and be one of many voices that advocates for equity.

Thanks for sharing the book

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Awesome Job Dr. Janson

thank you

Thank you, Dr. Janson 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Dr. Andrea Oliver, I would like to follow up with you in private if possible.

to Janson-grew up in Battle Creek-Kalamazoo area so know where you come from

Thank you all! I hate to miss another opportunity to listen and learn from Rodney Hurst and each of you. If you would like to talk further, please reach out: c.janson@unf.edu. Take care!

Thank you Dr. Janson

I agree with those descriptions of our nation's historical educational experiences.

Amen

Ashe

As an educator, I agree and push back on the systemic teaching

Wow, Mr. Hurst, Jr. is on point....thank you for being REAL!

oops Mr. Hurst, Sr.

Jewels! Ase!

yep

Ase!

Go ahead on now, Dr Hurst

🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

I admit my bias against Jefferson. A great middle grades fiction book is Jefferson's Sons. One of my favorites along with Copper Sun.

how do we teach the correct history, if we ourselves do not know this?

This is why I do not readily recommend relying on ANY history textbooks. Using primary sources is so much better.

Listen to the 2nd stanza of the Star Spangled Banner

I meant the 3

This oral story telling is awesome. I can listen to Mr. Hurst all day...History is fascinating!!

That is exactly right

EXACTLY

Mr. Hurst, Sr. speaks truths, thank you!

Lies my Teacher Told Me - James Loewen

"Racist in presidential clothing"...….uhhmmm

They didn't teach us that the Boston Tea Party was a riot.

how can this be corrected, so that the truth can be taught?

This country was built on a lie

Current Review of Civics Education in Florida (http://www.fldoe.org/civicsreview/). Join the review! Share your perspectives.

It's more important in their minds for our kids to know about ancient European "civilizations" than to teach them about Khemet, Kush or the Mali. These dynasties and empire are actually in our benchmarks and texts but are routinely avoided and erased.

I am moving from 7th grade Civics to 8th grade US History. Are there published benchmark clarifications like those available for Civics?

I teach the truth in my classroom and make sure that all students understand that there is a difference between what is written and what is true.

Very interesting presentation....Experiences are very important.

Is this presentation being recorded? I would love to show it to civics and history classes.

Thank you @Eboni Russell

How do we get the curriculum changed????

@Eboni... I do too! But get "pushback" from many

Just because it’s in our students curriculum it doesn’t mean that we should teach it. Our students believe what we say (elementary school)

There's so much truth NOT being told. Thank you for telling the truth!

someone’s phone keeps ringing

lol... very distracting

That's was afraid of @Avis

@Betty Clements Yes, my question too.

@ Avis....oops meant "That's what I was afraid of"

@Avis.... I do too! but I continue to push. I was raised in Washington, DC. It was normal for us to learn black history and sing our anthem every day.

I want more for our children!

This is an awesome Black History lesson

Very Informative Mr. Hurst

that is some incredible black history! so many gems

isn't it the standards we need to teach which means use the truth to teach those standards

AWESOME

Can you put a link in this chat?

As teachers, we want more for our CHILDREN than they do!

thank you Jesus!

I can't see the flyer on the desktop version

Thanks Mr. Hurst!

Can Mr. Hurts leave a phone number?

It's an honor to listen to you, Mr. Hurst!

Thank you, Mr. Hurst!!

I'm so honored to be a part of this

thank you

Thank you all for the many jewels!

Incredible!!! Thank You

yes, great insight. thank you.

@Dr. Tamara....Thank you!

Thank you all!!

Ase

Ashe!!!!!

thank you

This has been so so awesome!! I feel so empowered to go and do this vital work. So many wonderful speakers that are doing the important work. it has been an honor to share the space with you!!

As a teacher without tenure, I will be CAREFULLY pressing for my school and district to begin seeking exemplary status. :D

THANK YOU ALL! THIS WAS AMAZING!!!!

Thank you all for an amazing three days. It has been life-changing.

I want to send a BIG Thank You to Ms. Roxy....I haven't met you but you did an excellent job! I plan to take back what I gained for this conference. Thank you, panelist for everything!!

Again thanks very much for this wonderful experience.

Thank you!

I will be teaching the TRUE history of this country!

i intend to decorate my classroom so that it looks like the students I teach!

https://afroamfl.org/ Please send all lessons and ideas to our website

People's history

adding more TRUTH into readings.

make sure that my students know some of the inventors, artists, and correct history.

I am going to spend the rest of the summer revisiting my Biology curriculum and working in as much African American history (and removing falsehoods that I'm learning about) as possible. I already know of a couple of standards where I need to start.

As my school has begun Culturally Responsive Teaching, I will continue to embed the cultures reflected in my classroom into the curriculum.

I just revised my pacing guide to infuse African American history standards and will use the information to do better with my CRT

Please share on the app and our website https://afroamfl.org/

"Did you know......." closing of each class.

What I intend to do is take it back to my congress woman per what Mr. Hill recommended.

Uncovering and teaching the TRUTH to my students. I'll be researching and buying books to gain knowledge.

adding more knowledge and self knowledge. projects to connect with community and history

Connections to the Afro-Latino culture in Spanish speaking countries and how it is celebrated and recognized in so many countries. Also, a greater effort to include more Afro-latino figures in our studies. I would also like to learn further about Kara Walker and her work.

Roxy, in order to get the CEU points, I have to turn in a printable agenda. Where can I find one?

I plan on researching and reading more so I can truly provide an informed and motivating experience for my students

Next for me: A Social Justice Forum for Students titled "Liberty and Justice for All" coordinated by Student Voices: http://www.fldoe.org/schools/healthy-schools/comprehensive-health-edu.stml

I intend to have necessary conversations throughout the year. I will be looking at my curriculum and see where I can include more African American writers throughout the centuries.

Comparative history lessons, research lessons/assignments on African American History cross curriculum, research and utilize local museum for AA topics and knowledge, plan trip to Black Archives at FAMU

Shift my social studies curriculum into more project based learning units

I intend to inform myself of the true history in this country, to look through the pacing guide in all subjects and look up African Americans who have and currently impact our society and relate to that subject

more visuals of black science individuals to show students that there are achievers like them and make available the Hurst books for reading above their normal work. learn history not covered usually

I am a retired teacher in the state of GA. I intend to prepare lesson plans for 6th and 7th grade History that other teachers can use as they cover different places in our world.

I will work to get more PD for my whole school, include AA history in EVERY science unit, and create opportunities for students outside of the classroom to advocate for themselves

I would like to make sure that each of my 9 units of my AP World History course showcases accomplishments of either African civilizations or members of the African diaspora - working with a FB group of fellow WHAP teachers to make sure we keep each other accountable

Personally, educating myself more in the connection between SEL and it's links to history and personal development. As a resource teacher, engaging school leadership in conversation and looking at ways to provide resources to our teachers that can be infused in lesson plans. If provided for them, they’re more likely to implement.

Thank you all for what you do. Let's stay connected. Peace.

thank you!!

Thank you for this most informative event. This will be one of the most memorable of all PDs for me. It has empowered me on how I can have a much more engaging experience with my students in my classroom.

your come to Jesus talk worked! I had no issues with the surveys today!

Thank you to all for all you are being and doing.

Thank you to all the all speakers! This was a great experience.

Thank you all!

Thank you all for presenting and challenging us to make change.

It was an amazing experience!

I plan to incorporate more ENGAGING African American Studies in my Math lessons/ instructions, not just during the Black History Month in February, but throughout the school year.

Great Presentations. So grateful I had an opportunity to attend

great PD!! Thank you for everything

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SUCH A POWERFUL PD!!!

African American History Task Force has a Facebook, Twitter, and a YouTube channel. Please check us out!

As a retired assistant principal, I intend to share information with our school board president and curriculum department.

I intend on making Civics relevant to my students by showing them "their own faces" throughout history and stressing the importance of representation.

THANK YOU!!!!!!

I plan on collaborating more with my colleague who teaches AAH as a course. I feel as the AAH Club Sponsor and her being the AAH teacher, we can host more events and activities using the resources that we have learned about together as a means to serve our student population.

THANK YOU TO ALL THE PANELISTS & SPEAKERS AND ATTENDEES! I AM HONORED TO HAVE BEEN A ART OF THIS SUMMER INSTITUTE AND LOOK FORWARDING TO MANY MORE TO COME, THANK YOY ALL AND GOD BLESS!!
