The 1619 Project K-12 Curriculum Guide

The 1619 Project is a collaborative and expansive work consisting of the original New York Times Magazine special issue, the original print broadsheet, a podcast series, and two books from Penguin Random House.  The project calls us to do the work of truth-telling as a baseline for collective healing, understanding, and growth.  Specifically, the project as a collective work, asks that we center the influence, and consequences of the institution of slavery on America’s founding, and acknowledge the contributions of Black Americans, to the progress and development of the nation.
