In today’s challenging climate, it’s important to think about what it means to have a classroom that is truly inclusive. It’s a term that is often used and yet rarely understood. This collaborative workshop led by the Bayard Rustin Center for Social Justice and the National Civil Rights Museum will explore the fundamental ideas of inclusion and intersectionality through study of the Disability Rights Movement and the LGBTQIA+ Fight for Liberation alongside the Civil Rights Movement. Although these movements each have a different focus, they are deeply connected to our lived experience as human beings where markers of oppression and privilege intersect. We will use these stories of opposition and resistance from the marginalized groups of people who had to fight for the bare minimum of equality as models for our own classrooms and present–day struggles. We will share primary sources that uplift hidden histories and remind us of our role in the continuing movement for freedom. This session will ask us to consider how we create our legacy as educators, and how as role models, we can encourage learners to work towards accessible and inclusive communities.
