Course Description

This course shares 5 ways to look at learning & history herstory/ourstory through different lenses. By the course's end, you'll know why & how you can center your understanding of almost everything around Black/Brown women & children & other marginalized folks. You'll thank yourself for trusting your own learning styles & experiences!

We'll re-tell imperialist, colonialist, white male supremacist "history" together. Feel free to just enjoy the CutureSeeds that illustrate the 5 Paths by signing up. Better yet, dive into Reflection (Path E) and share what you feel/think/experience with your folks of all ages!
