Reimagine 1776 With Historian Jane Kamensky

On Thursday, January 15, join historian Jane Kamensky and the Center for Civic Education for “America 250: Reimagining 1776 for Today’s Classroom.” Join us to examine how the founding era is taught as the nation approaches its 250th anniversary.

We will spend a thought-provoking evening on how to teach the founding era in ways that empower and include all students. Whether through the civic ideals of equality and participation or the complex legacies of liberty and exclusion, this session invites teachers to explore 1776 as both a historical turning point and a living civic promise.

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.
