  • Black History Month Friday Morning Meeting 2018
    Black History Month Friday Morning Meeting 2018 Quiz Questions and Answers 1) Do you know when the idea of Black History Month was established? Answer: Black History month has been nationally recognized since 1976, although Dr. Carter G. Woodson created it in 1926. Growing out of “Negro History Week”, which was celebrated between Abraham Lincoln’s birthday (February 12) and Frederick Douglass’ birthday (February 20), it is a designated time in which the achievements of Black people are recognized. 2) Do you know how long the Pan-African flag has existed? Answer: The Pan-African flag was created in 1920 to represent the pride of African- American people. The red band is for the “blood that unifies African descendants”, the black is to affirm the existence of Black people and green reminds people about the “vegetation of the motherland”. 3) Do you know how many museums in the United States are dedicated to African- American culture or history? Answer: There are over 150 museums dedicated to African-American culture and history in the country. The first was established in 1868 at the historically Black college, Hampton University in Hampton, VA. The largest museum was the Charles H. Wright museum of Detroit, Michigan, which was founded in 1965. However, the National Museum of African-American History and Culture completed in 2016 has exceeded it in size. 4) Do you know how many visits to the National Museum of African American History and Culture have been recorded since its opening? Answer: The Smithsonian Institution has a museum dedicated to African-American culture and history? Located in the heart of Washington, D.C., it has over 36,000 artifacts highlighting subjects like community, the arts, civil rights, and slavery.

Our report showed that few states emphasize the movement or provide classroom support for teaching this history effectively. We followed up these findings by releasingThe March Continues: Five Essential Practices for Teaching the Civil Rights Movement, a set of guiding principles for educators who want to improve upon the simplified King-and-Parks-centered narrative many state standards offer. Those essential practices are: 1. Educate for empowerment. 2. Know how to talk about race. 3. Capture the unseen. 4. Resist telling a simple story. 5. Connect to the present. Civil Rights Done Right offers a detailed set of curriculum improvement strategies for classroom instructors who want to apply these practices.

  • Memory of the Civil Rights Movement in Textbooks, Juvenile Biography, and Museums
    ABSTRACT JOHNSON, CHRISTINE RENEE GOULD. Celebrating a National Myth: Memory of The Civil Rights Movement in Textbooks, Juvenile Biography, and Museums. (Under the direction of Dr. Katherine Mellen Charron). The Civil Rights Movement (CRM) is commemorated at movement anniversaries, during Black History Month, and every Martin Luther King Jr. Day. However, some historians argue these public versions do not tell a full story of the CRM, over-simplifying it and portraying it as a story of inevitable progress. Relying on a “mythic” version of this critical event in the nation’s history, the mainstream narrative has little explanatory power. This makes it easier for some to dismiss ongoing struggles for racial equality and more difficult for future generations to learn from movement’s successes and failures. This thesis examines other kinds of CRM history that inform the public. Many learn about the movement as youth through educational mediums like high school textbooks and children’s literature, and people of all ages encounter it in museums. I ask what version of CRM history each of these present, inquiring how interpretations have evolved over time and the degree to which they reflect changes in scholarship. Spanning a total of fifty-four years, this study finds surprisingly little change in textbook narratives beyond token additions that nod to some advancements in the historiography. Juvenile biographies of CRM luminaries published in recent decades present a deeper history, often with a longer chronology, but relay an overly optimistic outlook about what the movement accomplished. Civil rights museums in the South vary in their depictions, with the strongest interpretations appearing in the most recently opened or renovated.
