The December Dilemma
Holidays are a time for celebration and cultural learning, but they can also cause confusion for educators whose classrooms and communities contain a diversity of traditions. This workshop provides participants with essential strategies and resources to address religious beliefs and non-beliefs and to promote holiday inclusion throughout the year.
Race, Religion & the Racialization of Religion
By examining acts of discrimination, the rise in hate crimes, and the media’s role after 9/11, this workshop addresses how the “racialization of religion” relates to their school climate. Participants will understand the dangers of conflating race and religion and gain strategies for addressing race and religion in the classroom.
