Digital Memorials
As we began reading the text "This Book is Anti-Racist" as a Middle School in Advisory, Eighth Graders looked at Tiffany Jewell's dedication. She writes: "I wrote these words for you while carrying a heavy heart. It aches for: Emmett Till, Tamir Rice, Korryn Gaines, Michael Brown, Eric Garner, Sandra Bland, Bobby Hutton, Antwon Rose Jr., Stephon Clark, Rekia Boyd, Stephen Lawrence, Charleena Lyles, Alton Sterling, Philando Castile, Aiyana Stanley-Jones, Trayvon Martin". Students used online digital app Pixlr to create memorials celebrating the lives of each of these individuals.
