Facing History and Ourselves

Episode 10: In this episode we consider the ways in which history influences our present lives — both our national history but also our own personal histories. We hear from Wayde Grinstead , senior program associate for Facing History and Ourselves, an organization dedicated to to helping students relate historical acts of racism and intolerance to their own lives in order to promote a greater understanding of the roles and responsibilities of democratic citizenship. We’ll also hear from writer and veteran teacher Tamara Jaffe Notier who shares a story of a conflict in her own classroom that forces her to consider her students’ and her own complicated histories.
