Many educators use the 13 Guiding Principles (left) of the Movement for Black Lives to teach about Black Lives Matter in their classrooms. A Kindergarten teacher in New York City, Laleña Garcia, put together child-friendly language to talk about the 13 Principles with young children. A High School Art teacher in New York City, Caryn Davidson, illustrated posters and a coloring book with activities for students to engage with the 13 Principles.
