This week, tchrs signed up at ZEP to access people's history lessons in Memphis; Topeka; Waco & El Paso; Tampa; Noblesville, IN; Stone Mountain, Albany, & Athens, GA; Rogersville, TN; Columbia & Lancaster, SC; the Bronx; & many more cities.
69 on Tue, 79 on Wed, & 62 on Thurs.

In response to "how did you find our people's history site?", a teacher wrote: "Honestly, there was a call for us to 'self-report' if we taught this. I was more intrigued than ever, & I came to return to this decades after my grad studies. I'm happy to be here and involved now."

And teachers from every state (close to 8,000) continue to pledge to #TeachTruth, meaning they will not censor U.S. history (& other subjects) in their classrooms & they will encourage critical thinking and dialogue. Read selected pledges ⬇️& add your own.

Right wing media outlets publish daily lists of cities & states where teachers signed the pledge. And lists of where they haven't -- their warning to teachers "don't let your name show up here." Teachers who've signed have been threatened -- life & job. zinnedproject.org/news/teaching-…

Not a teacher? Please speak out in defense of growing number of teachers who #TeachOutsideTextbook so that children learn truth about history and to think for themselves so that they can shape a more just future.
