Teaching Cleveland Institute Summer 2024

Participants will explore their own identities through a racial lens, learn pedagogy to engage their students in similar conversations, and discuss their personal experiences through a series of activities, media, and presentations.

The second day will concentrate on Cleveland's history through the lens of immigration, the Great Migration, and suburbanization, all of which led to conflict and violence in the 1960s during the Hough Riots and the Glenville Shootout.  Past TCI participants will present their lessons and activities about these topics.

The third day will explore the legacies of systemic inequities in Greater Cleveland today.  Participants will meet community leaders who are engaged in addressing these challenges and engage in conversations to help them make connections for their students and for their work.
