"As civics has made a comeback into classrooms after years of neglect, educators and experts say they are layering traditional civics content with skills more social and emotional in nature, like social awareness, identity development and relationship skills." @FHGlobal

We’re so sad to hear that Rip Patton, the US civil rights leader,@FHGlobal advocate and our good friend has died. On his last visit, he challenged us to 'never forget the power of one person’. Our prayers are with all who knew him. (Rip with our Director @TimMagowan in 2019).

Moved to be part of this panel on May 6th. Join in! As I think through these large themes of repair & healing I'm reading this delicate story kaNotrose Konile—a mother to 1 of the 7 young men killed during the #GugulethuSevenKillings
This book closely explores her TRC testimony.
The #SouthAfrican TRC was a watershed event. So much to learn as we imagine repair. Honored to learn from @Nmogap @MaxduPreez @dylanhwray @Ceehl @LonziThemba @RoyHellenberg facinghistory.org/our-work/i…
