Frederick Douglass said, "It is easier to build strong children than it is to repair broken men." Please join community leaders and educators, including representatives from Mass Humanities, Beyond Walls, IDEAS, Phoenix Charter Academy, and 2024 Massachusetts Teacher of the Year Dr De'Shawn Washington, to explore strategies and initiatives to dismantle colonial legacies in our educational systems. In this far-ranging conversation, panelists share critical perspectives on shaping an inclusive and equitable educational landscape for future generations and ask the question: “To teach or not to teach Frederick Douglass in 2025."
