Radical ReVision
NEW YORK
Our students will examine our local history, read primary documents about enslaved people who built the town of Irvington and the work to memorialize these people in the community. Students will consider what it means to look truthfully at local and national histories and how we can consider those who were erased in historical record. Lastly, they will consider how they can use their own intentionally and authentically to make reparation with art & words.
