Time: 7pm – 8:00pm ET

In the lead-up to the election, stereotypes, memes, and tropes about immigrants are proliferating, affecting the school environment, student well-being, and our communities at large. This webinar, hosted by Re-Imagining Migration, will equip educators with practical strategies to prevent, counter, and address anti-immigrant prejudice. Participants will learn strategies to lead insightful inquiry and discussion about the continuities and changes in anti-immigrant prejudice, critical media literacy strategies to analyze claims, and ways to respond to bias and bullying that can help foster empathy and understanding among students. By emphasizing the human impact of discrimination and leveraging best practices, educators can counter harmful stereotypes and promote a respectful and equitable learning environment for all students. Join us to build a community where every student feels valued and understood.

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.
