This workshop is part of the LIWP's 2022-2023 grant work, funded by the National Writing Project and the National Endowment for the Humanities. This initiative is a collaboration between the Long Island Writing Project and The Holocaust Museum and Tolerance Center as well as the Anti-Racism Project. The central goal is to create a year-long professional development project with a multitude of programming events with local communities that explore the immigrant experience and our shared history. We invite educators to join us in these important conversations. Please spread the word to friends and colleagues!
