- Education
Afrika Afeni Mills is an Education Consultant and the author of Open Windows, Open Minds: Developing Antiracist, Pro-Human Students. Afrika is all about helping teachers, coaches and administrators develop and sustain student-centered learning experiences that are diverse, that are inclusive, and that are equitable. Afrika is brilliant at providing the essential support that enables, empowers really, educators to become dynamic practitioners and leaders who can trust themselves to create fun, relevant, student-centered, anti-bias, anti-racist, culturally responsive learning environments that are an inspiration to all participants. Education Consultant may be Afrika’s official job title, but this work is so much more than a job-job to her.

Open Windows, Open Minds: Developing Antiracist, Pro-Human Students by Afrika Afeni Mills
America to Me documentary series - educators can sign up for free access through 2022
The Red Folder (looking at a student's humanity - trigger warning: one student does use the word "retarded" when speaking to the featured student toward the end)
Cause I Ain't Got a Pencil (below, written by Joshua T. Dickerson, an adult, from a child's perspective - also important to note the systemic injustices that led to the family's circumstances [not having an alarm clock, access to/time for laundering, money for electricity, why an adult isn't there in the morning, access to food, etc.], seeing the deficit in the situation, not the family)
Learning for Justice's Social Justice Standards webpage and download link (I love that there's guidance across the identity, diversity, action, and justice domains for the K-2, 3-5, 6-8 and 9-12 grade bands)
