The Learning for Justice Website
Learning for Justice has a valuable website that offers free resources, lessons, faculty development, and publications. As the education arm of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), their goal is to facilitate thoughtful communication leading to action for those who have been affected by injustice.
Learning for Justice is defined as a group that works together in communities most affected by injustice, by having discussions, deciding actions to take, and then following through. Their “‘methods'” require a pedagogy of practice. Practice begets learning; we become what we do.” (What it Means to Learn for Justice)
While their focus has been education, they are branching out “to prepare community members – including parents and caregivers” to become advocates that address the most important issues faced by “children of color in low-income communities”. (Coming Changes)
Their resources are free and available for everyone, but they request that users acknowledge the source and follow their guidelines.
(See below for a list of some of the Educator Resources.)
Among the Educator Resources are webinars on a wide variety of topics, including “Supporting and Affirming Immigrant Students and Families” and “Best Practices for Serving English Language Learners and Their Families”.
