On Monday, November 13, 2023, historian Michael Hines will discuss his book, A Worthy Piece of Work: The Untold Story of Madeline Morgan and the Fight for Black History in Schools, which details how African American educator activists in the early 20th century created new curriculum around race and historical representation.

Hines will be in conversation with Jesse Hagopian and Cierra Kaler-Jones. Hagopian is a Rethinking Schools editor and on the Zinn Education Project leadership team. Kaler-Jones is executive director of Rethinking Schools.

We are grateful for the generous support of our members, individual donors, and The Puffin Foundation Ltd
The core values of HRE USA and its partner organizations include transparency and critical thinking skills. We believe that human rights--and human rights education--belong to everyone, and that the full realization of human rights means that access to human rights education materials must never be conditioned upon the subscription to any particular religious faith, ideology, political affiliation, or membership in any particular organization and that any organizational connections should be openly acknowledged.
