Today marks the last week of Black History Month. Although the month is over, we should never stop learning about black history. One month will never be enough to learn about history, let alone learn and honor Black leaders, but we encourage you all to use the rest of this month to dig into history and the present and reflect on where your own powers and privileges intersect and interlock. 

These resources are not all-inclusive and Black history is not a monolith. Below are some daily actions as well as people to follow, educational resources, and organizations to support. 

IDEAS challenges our school community to use this opportunity to learn about Black leaders in both German & American histories (including the present) to further cultivate empathy and accountability with these histories, and to participate in conversations that can make our communities more dynamic.

Dear JFKS, 

Here are your suggested daily actions for Black History Month. As we are a German-American school, this week features German Black history, leaders, and organizations. 

One month will never be enough to learn about history, let alone learn and honor Black leaders, but we encourage you all to use this time to dig into history and the present and reflect on where your own powers and privileges intersect and interlock. 

Again, these resources are not all-inclusive and Black history is not a monolith. We know we’ve already suggested it, but the free daily newsletters from Anti-Racism Daily are great as a resource to take antiracist steps toward action. 

IDEAS challenges our school community to use this opportunity to learn and further cultivate accountability with these histories, and to participate in conversations and other actions that can make our communities more empathetic and inclusive.
