Students will improve their critical thinking skills and be able to respond to journaling prompts.

I am a student of African history, social values, and culture. I've taught related racial and cultural topics, including the African Holocaust of Enslavement, to children as young as 7, and use my background knowledge and personal experiences as an African descendant to navigate these spaces with sensitivity and care. It is my belief that students of any age can learn these issues, as long as they are presented in an age-appropriate manner. With my background in European and African psychology, I understand the wellbeing aspect of these discussions and take the necessary precautions to ensure that students feel safe, heard, and respected. 

We will refer to sayings, quotes, lyrics, and proverbs created by African/Black people across space and time. The prompts will be sent to students after each session in case the student would like to explore deeper.
