Reading Club Selection for September 25, 2020


Our thanks go to Wendy Ramsay of REACH CNY for this week’s selection:

New Resources for Confronting White Nationalism (article)

We’ll discuss this article, which is an interview with the developers of a toolkit to be used by any school stakeholder (including students, educators, parents, administrators, and the wider community) to combat white nationalist organizing in schools.

If you are interested in seeing the toolkit itself, use this link to request a copy from Western States Center:
