Registration required HERE. \nPDPs for Educators Offered! All are welcome. \nEssex Heritage invites you to a FREE workshop. Youth in the region are asking their teachers for a more accurate and honest portrayal of U.S. History and how events impacted ALL of the people that live in America. Using primary sources from institutions throughout Essex County\, local educators\, historians and scholars will help us reexamine the American Revolution through the lens of women\, Black and Indigenous people. \n\nWhat is the current interpretation of the American Revolution in our regional public history and educational programming?\nWhat are the stories related to these topics that our institutions are not telling\, especially as it relates to women\, Black and Indigenous people’s perspectives?\nHow has commemoration of the American Revolution celebrated and perpetuated traditional narratives about the Revolution in our area? How has it invited us to consider other narratives?\nWhat strategies can we use to teach and interpret a more inclusive understanding about this history\, especially as we approach the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution?\n\nParticipants will consider these and other questions through educator facilitated activities\, critical discussions and a panel presentation moderated by Dr. Bethany Jay\, Professor at Salem State University and editor of Understanding and Teaching American Slavery\, 2016. \nPanelists and contributors include: \n\nToni Waldron\, Educator\, Royall House and Slave Quarters\, Medford\nJeanne Pickering\, Historian and Vice President\, Topsfield Historical Society\nPamela Ellis\, Tribal Historian and Genealogist\, Natick Nipmuc Indian Council\nMaryann Zujewski\, Education Program Manager\, National Park Service\nLauren McCormack\, Director\, Marblehead Museum\nLou Meyi\, Marblehead Racial Justice Team\nBrian Sheehy\, History Department Coordinator\, North Andover Public Schools\nCharlie Newhall\, History Teacher\, St. John’s Prep\, Danvers\nZhane Burton\, Teacher\, Prospect Hill School\nLucy Keller\, Research Coordinator\, Historic Beverly\nBeth Bower\, Trustee\, Historic Beverly\nCathy Kelley\, Education Manager\, Cape Ann Museum\nChristopher Locke\, Collections Manager\, Lynn Museum/LynnArts\nJonathan Streff\, Teacher\, St. John’s Prep\n\nOur generation\, especially as people of color\, black kids\, we have a hunger to see ourselves represented in our communities\, in the media and in our classrooms and the spaces around us.\n– Vanessa Basame\, Student\, Co-President\, Masconomet Regional High School ACE Club 2023 \nAn effective history and social science education incorporates diverse perspectives and acknowledges that perceptions of events are affected by race\, ethnicity\, culture\, religion\, education\, gender\, gender identity\, sexual orientation\, disability\, and personal experience.\n-Guiding Principle 2 for Effective History and Social Science Education Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for History and Social Science\, 2018 \nThis program is part of Essex County Revolution 250.\n\nEssex County Revolution 250 is an initiative of Essex Heritage in partnership with Massachusetts Rev250 and dozens of regional museums\, heritage sites\, and organizations\, with the intention of raising awareness and highlighting the diverse stories of Essex County\, Massachusetts residents\, free and unfree\, during the American Revolutionary period.
