All preK-12th grade D.C. area educators are invited to participate in a planning meeting for the sixth annual D.C. Area Black Lives Matter at School Week of Action (Feb 5-9, 2024)!

During this time, we will be reminded of the 13 guiding principles and national demands, along with the Year of Purpose, as well as review and share resources for lessons and activities for uplifting Black Lives Matter at School during the Week of Action and beyond. Participants will network with peers from the DC metro area during community-building activities like trivia and share outs about past ways folks have engaged in the Week of Action. Educators will work in grade level groups to develop classroom resources. Everyone will leave with a free book of their choice from our selection of elementary and YA books related to the 13 Black Lives Matter principles and Black history. Snacks and coffee will be provided.
