I assume everybody knows who Lynne Cheney is, but who’s Cecilia Cannon? She’s an assistant superintendent of the Philadelphia school system, and she was recently quoted in praise of the newly imposed requirement that all high school students in the City of Brotherly Love be required to study African and African American history in order to graduate. So what do Cheney and Cannon have in common, other than their shared interest in education? Both believe that the reason for studying history is to make students feel good about themselves. Cheney hit the big time about a decade ago when she launched a pre-emptive strike on the National History Standards that she herself had commissioned as head of the NEH. According to the Los Angeles Times , Mrs. Cheney argued "that the standards were not positive enough about America's achievements and paid too little attention to figures such as Gen. Robert E. Lee, Paul Revere and Thomas Edison. At one point in the initial controversy, Cheney denounced the standards as 'politicized history.' " There were not enough references to the Constitution and too many references to the Ku Klux Klan. Not enough George Washington and too much Harriet Tubman. All in all, Cheney concluded, "We are a better people than the National History Standards indicate, and our children deserve to know it." (This was the height of sophistication beside Rush Limbaugh’s denunciation of the standards: "History is real simple. You know what history is? It's what happened.")

To Guide Entry Overview - Introduction - Learning to View Art - Differences: It’s Not Black and White - Slavery - Desegregation - Desegregation: General - Desegregation: Libraries - Desegregation: Schools - Celebrating Diversity - Modifications for Secondary School Level - Lesson Plans - New Haven Standards - Bibliography Introduction My goal is to teach my kindergarten students about black history through the eyes of children. In doing so, I will be able to provide my students with an awareness to build upon as they grow and mature. My resources include pieces of art centering on African-American children and literature related to the pieces. My focus is on desegregation. To lead into desegregation, I will briefly touch upon slavery. The unit will conclude with a celebration of diversity. Because slavery and desegregation are sensitive subjects, I have been very selective in choosing art and literature to work with. My intention is to make my students aware of black history without depressing them or instilling fear and anger. By the end of the unit, I hope my students will have an appreciation for black history and a realization of how far African-Americans have come. I want them to know that there is hope for an even better tomorrow.

Overview The month of February was yet another opportunity for Rwandans to learn the story of African-American’s struggle for freedom and equality. As part of our annual Programs in commemorating the African-American History Month, PAS/Mission organized activities that mainly included film shows as well as an Inter-School Contest on the progress, and various historical achievements of black people in arts, education, government, sports, science and many others. Objectives Our objective was to involve students, as future leaders, in activities that promote and demonstrate good citizenship, and to develop them into competent and responsible citizens committed to the fundamental values and principles that are essential to the preservation and improvement of the Rwandan society. Our efforts were also to promote effective civic practices that help in teaching students not to simply be followers but transformers, creators of democracies, economies, and societies that are just and prosperous for all Rwandans. This program was an opportunity for us to bring together diverse groups of Rwandans who have the interest in promoting, educating and learning about the achievements of African-Americans.

Print This Page Teaching the Article Teaching with "Meta Warrick's 1907 'Negro Tableaux'" The writer and activist Audre Lorde's famous essay title, "The Master's Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master's House," bears directly on the challenge faced by many turn-of-the-century African American intellectuals and artists. I often ask students to consider what "tools" African Americans had in their "tool box" that they could use to represent the fullness of their abilities, aspirations, and accomplishments. Given the pervasiveness of racist representations of African Americans in American culture , popular and elite, where and how should African American intellectuals and artists have begun to challenge them? The dilemma that African American artists faced was acute. Many had struggled against discrimination to acquire and contribute to the canon of Victorian culture. By establishing their ability to uphold and advance "civilization," which was understood to be the highest stage of human development, African American intellectuals aspired to expose the falsehood of black inferiority. Yet these same intellectuals and artists could not avoid the conundrum posed by Lorde. How could African Americans adopt (and adapt) prevailing ideals of beauty, culture, progress, and creativity without at the same time consenting to some of the racist assumptions that permeated those ideals? How could Meta Warrick, a sculptor trained in the classical tradition in Paris, artistically render African Americans and their history at a time when neither were considered fitting artistic subjects?

England's Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA) has produced guidance stressing the use of chronology in history to build up "the big picture". It also aims to encourage learning about change and continuity - identifying themes such as how events affected people's working lives. QCA chief executive, Ken Boston, said: "The dates of key events in history are an important part of learning." Timelines He added: "Children need to know when things happened but also why they matter to the lives they lead today and the events that helped to shape our world." What brings history to life is the impact that those dates still have on the world that we live in QCA spokesman Last year the then Education Secretary, Charles Clarke, asked the QCA to review the history curriculum - which is compulsory in England only up to the age of 14. In an interview, he said: "A lot of people - people I respect - say that there is not enough of a sense of a timeline in history, so that pupils have too much detailed study of particular eras and not enough of a sense of context for what happened.
