For educators looking for resources for Black History Month, I’d like to call your attention to some special issues that were recently published in the Journal of Educational Controversy. The theme of the issue for Volume 12 was: “Black Lives Matter and the Education Industrial Complex.” The theme of the issue for Volume 14 was: “The Ethics of Memory: What Does it Mean to Apologize for Historical Wrongs.”
A list of the articles for both issues is below:
