I am a certified K-12 Theater Teacher who has studied Black History most of my life included at New York University, Teach 4 America and Living Voices where I studied and performed a Civil Rights play called, The Right to Dream as a Teaching Artist for school assemblies across NY and NJ. I also worked as a Teaching Artist for George Street Playhouse where I helped enhance elementary schools' Black History lessons through playwriting and performance. Finally, as a high school classroom teacher I taught students Black History and helped them write creatively and perform original works surrounding past and current issues.
This class includes actual images from the Civil Rights movements, some of which are graphic and violent in nature.
