Sox Sperry, Project Look Sharp's curriculum writer, led participants on a participatory exploration of lessons covering media representations of Dr. King. The curriculum kit he refers to is available free and online from our website. The webinar offers Middle and High School teachers, community educators and teachers-in-training pedagogical techniques and curriculum materials to support a deeper understanding of how to use a wide variety of media documents that:

-Support content teaching about social justice movements 
-Examine media representations of ongoing struggles against racism and the practice of nonviolence 
-Encourage analysis of meanings and messages constructed about Dr. King's life

Also explored are media literacy goals analyzing historical context, purpose and credibility of media constructions. Participants will have access to handouts, lessons, and other tools to immediately integrate media literacy into curriculum design.
