WHAT IS A TEACH-IN?
|
You’ve heard of Sit-Ins. They are a form of protest to bring about awareness of a particular social injustice as seen through the eyes of a particular part of our citizenry. A Teach-In goes beyond that awareness. It is an action that an entire community can take to aid in further understanding social injustice while hearing many perspectives to bring about a resolution. To learn more about how to run your own Teach-In, please visit our How To page.
