SUMMARY:Confronting Racial Injustice: Slavery\, Wealth Creation\, and Intergenerational Wealth
DESCRIPTION:From the 17th century to the 21st\, enslavement—even when it took place outside of Massachusetts—shaped the province and the state in significant ways. It was and has been central to creating wealth: family fortunes\, institutional endowments\, and public budgets in Massachusetts have benefited from its spoils. This panel explores the Commonweath’s connections to slavery and the trade of enslaved people\, the wealth—and the poverty—enslavement created and bequeathed\, and how the legacies of enslavement are reflected in injustices that haunt Massachusetts to this day. \nThis five-part series was developed by the Northeastern University School of Law Criminal Justice Task Force. It is hosted by the Massachusetts Historical Society and sponsored by a number of Boston-area organizations.

SUMMARY:The Senate and Women's Fight for the Vote
DESCRIPTION:In 1878 Senator Aaron Sargent became the first member of Congress to formally propose a constitutional amendment specifically to extend voting rights to women. The Senate never voted on Sargent’s proposal\, but the idea and the suffragists who supported it persisted. Senators—some of them working closely with activists—continued to debate women’s political rights over the next four decades as suffrage lobbyists ramped up pressure on members of Congress. After several failed attempts\, the Senate finally approved a constitutional amendment for woman suffrage on June 4\, 1919. Ratified in 1920\, the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution includes only 39 words\, two sentences that represent the work of generations of activists and a dedicated group of congressional reformers.

SUMMARY:Test your News Literacy with Informable
DESCRIPTION:Players develop the skills to become news-literate by practicing four distinct skills in a game format: distinguishing news articles from opinion pieces\, advertisements from other types of information\, false evidence from factual evidence\, and fact-based statements from opinion-based statements. Informable is an innovative step toward building more responsive tools for real-world learning — expanding beyond the classroom by offering educational opportunities to the public.

SUMMARY:Tell Me What Democracy Looks Like
DESCRIPTION:Taking a cue from the popular protest call-and-response—”Show me what democracy looks like! This is what democracy looks like!”—this site explores what democracy looks like from the perspectives of five organizers working in today’s undocumented movement. Through their stories\, these organizers invite us to look beyond the headlines and the issues often associated with undocumented immigrants\, from DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) to the DREAMers. In the process\, they stretch our imagination by offering fresh approaches to familiar topics such as community\, citizenship\, belonging\, and even identity itself.
