Overview of class

In this course, Evanston Township High School students, Northwestern students, and local Evanston youth workers will collectively study educational injustice as well as historical, current, and future struggles for justice. This space will be one of healing, dreaming, and imagining, as we continue to navigate our world. We will also engage in critical reading and writing, community-based research and design, artmaking, outdoor activities, and collective care in ways that nourish our minds and well-being in this time.

The course will be co-taught by Professor Megan Bang, Learning Sciences PhD students Alejandra Frausto, Miguel Ovies-Bocanegra, and Corey Winchester (also an ETHS History Teacher); ETHS Teachers, Paula Katrina Camaya (History/SS), Ilma Lodhi (Math) and TaRhonda Woods (Science); and Samuel Carroll (McGaw YMCA). The course meets during NU's Spring Quarter Every Wednesday from 5PM-8PM with dinner served at 4:30PM.
