In conjunction with the PBS documentary special, LEGACY, the
producer and its partners invite you to participate in the
2009 LEGACY ESSAY CONTEST What are the Legacy and Lessons of the Civil Rights Movement?
PRIZES: Cash Awards, Computer Laptops, and VIP Capitol Hill Awards
Ceremony
Deadline for submissions: December 15, 2009
Eligibility: Junior and Senior High School Students
LEGACY & LESSONS OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT
WHO: Karz
Productions in partnership with the American Federation of Teachers (AFT),
ASCD (formerly Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development),
Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF), National Council for the
Social Studies (NCSS), National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE), and
National Education Association (NEA)
WHAT: An Integrated Three-Part Educational Program for High Schools WHERE: www.legacyandlessons.com WHEN: October 13, 2009 through next February, Black History Month, 2010
SUMMARY
The Legacy and Lessons of the Civil Rights Movement is an integrated
three-part educational program for high school juniors and seniors. The
program includes the
Legacy Essay Contest, Legacy
Lesson Plan,
and Legacy
Screenings and Discussion Guide. These
are three complementary projects designed to provide teachers with
resources to bring African-American history to life for their students.
GOALS
Legacy and Lessons seeks to stimulate high school students to take a
serious look at what it means to be black or white in America today, how
this has and hasn’t changed since the days of the Civil Rights Movement,
and what the lessons are for how to further the quest for genuine racial
equity.
By
compelling students to look at their own lives and times in the context of
a
continuing struggle to realize our most basic aspirations as a nation, the
aim is to dramatize the relevance of history today and to clarify the
personal and political challenges that must be confronted for genuine
advancement to take place.
BACKGROUND
If the Gates/Crowley incident proved anything, it proved that, despite the
landslide election of our first African-American president, racial tension
is still a fact of life in America. For all the talk of a new era in race
relations, racial disparities in health, crime, incarceration, education,
and poverty persist and genuine dialogue about race continues to be
elusive. Something must be done to create a new framework for
understanding and addressing the issue of race in America, for breaking
through the resistance and defensiveness of the past to achieve some
clarity and insight into the nature of the racial divide. The idea behind
Legacy and Lessons is that the best place to
start is by recognizing that African-American history is, in John Hope Franklin’s words, “a mirror of America,” and that, in Albert Murray’s words, “The so-called black and so-called white people of the United States resemble nobody else in the world so much as they resemble each other.” This is about the black and white in each of us. It is about having a dialogue with history, with each other, and with ourselves. GO TO www.legacyandlessons.com
Richard Karz is
the producer of
Legacy: Black and White in America,
which is the third film in The Millennium Dinners documentary series. The
Millennium Dinners employs interdisciplinary, multicultural, and
intergenerational VIP dinner gatherings to explore issues of global change
through dialogue and background day-in-the-life profiles and vignettes.
The series uses the dinner party as a metaphor to present the conflicts in
human nature that have propelled our advancement as a civilization but
that jeopardize our future survival, and it looks at the possibilities for
a new paradigm in the conduct of human relations that can successfully
manage the stresses of the new millennium.

Subject: Scholarships for Students of Color!!
A
number of companies and organizations have set money aside for scholarships
to minority students, but a great deal of that money is being returned
because of a lack of interest or awareness. Money shouldn't be returned to
donating companies because people are failing to apply for it because they
don’t know about it.

Graduate School Opportunity
Please
see the information below.
_______________________________________ Greetings,
I wanted to let you know about a great opportunity here
at Wake Forest where you
can get a FREE education and get PAID while you're doing
it. Our Dean of the Schools of Business is the former
CEO of PepsiCo and very committed to
diversity. He's gone around to his CEO friends, who have
agreed to donate
a bunch of money to pay tuition and fees, provide a
stipend, and a job,
to diverse students. The details are below. The problem
is, response to
the program has been dismal! It's hard for me to believe
in the age of Obama,
we can't pay black people to go to school? As a faculty
member, I would
be embarrassed for him to have to tell his CEO friends,
"thanks so much
for your donation, but unfortunately I have to give it
back because we couldn't
find any students who wanted it."
Derrick S. Boone, Ph.D.
