Ubuntu: Young Griots of the Crossroads
NEW JERSEY
The Ubuntu: Young Griots of the Crossroads team will develop a unit plan that inspires our youth to develop pride in their community by cultivating an appreciation for the origins and historical legacies of two New Jersey cities-East Orange and Newark, and the unsung heroes and heroines who used activism to fight against injustice, discrimination, and educational inequity.
CURRICULAR RESOURCES
