About this event

Join us for an exciting professional development opportunity for Pre-K-12 educators.

The 9th Annual Indigenous Peoples' Day Teach-In offers educators a dynamic 4.5-hour experience featuring a keynote, strategies for teaching contemporary Native perspectives, and a guided exploration of Native Truths: Our Voices, Our Stories.

This year’s Teach-In features a virtual keynote from Dr. Scott Manning Stevens (Akwesane Mohawk), a nationally recognized scholar in Native American cultures, museum studies, and Native literatures. He is the author of Why You Can't Teach United States History without American Indians and currently serves as Associate Professor and Director of the Center for Global Indigenous Cultures and Environmental Justice at Syracuse University.

Additional highlights include educator focused sessions on teaching contemporary Native perspectives and a guided exploration of the Native Truths exhibition. This annual event continues to grow in reach and impact, supporting hundreds of educators in transforming classroom narratives around Indigenous peoples and histories.

The cost of this event is $50 and includes lunch, parking, and additional curricular resources.
