Information

Teaching Against Erasure is sponsored by the Institute for the Study of Global Racial Justice (ISGRJ) and the Center for Politics and Race in America (CPRA) at Rutgers University-Newark. With support from the Institute on Ethnicity, Culture, and the Modern Experience and the Departments of Africana Studies, History, Urban Education, and the Disability Studies Minor at Rutgers University-Newark.

Teaching Against Erasure (TAE) is an initiative organized through the collaboration of educators, scholars, and advocates dedicated to social justice and inclusivity.

Our public workshops bring students, teachers, scholars, community organizers, and researchers together to promote sustainable inclusivity in classrooms everywhere. Each session in this educational development program reminds us that human complexity and diversity are the basis for healthy and productive learning environments.

Grounding ourselves in the “it takes a village” approach, we lean on community building practices to help educators develop pedagogical methods that support safe learning environments for all learners. This convening will offer thematic workshops led by scholars, community leaders, and veteran teachers.

Sessions will emphasize strategies for integrating content focused on Black, Indigenous, Latinx, LGBTQIA+ and Dis/Abilities studies material into the existing New Jersey core curriculum content.

Registration required. Participants may choose one morning and one afternoon session. Register here: go.rutgers.edu/registerTAE
