The guiding question I’m using for my UnFinal project is, “How is the tradition of classroom care passed on?” I will share a piece of my 2nd exam that addresses this question through a Black educational histor […]
Fatima! First of all, thank you for placing this post. After reading your post, one of your questions that echoed Horsford stood out to me: Who will lead the charge? And I thought to myself, who better than YOU […]
Aight, So Boom, we know that Brown V Board was supposed to integrate schools, and we then know Brown V Board II was enacted because Brown V Board was failing. Brown V board attempted to address the failings of […]
