Description

Guided tour of the Undesign the Redline exhibit and discussion of new resource guides for educators Join us for a guided tour of the Undesign the Redline exhibit, followed by an introduction to multiple resource guides developed to accompany this exhibition. Exhibition resource guides serve to provide educators, parents, and caregivers with accessible resources and engaging content to further explore topics redlining in America and its lingering impact in our community. In line with The Union's core values, these resource guides are intended to create uplifting and critical dialogue, build community pride, and empower students (of all ages) to become more civically engaged and active in social justice issues that are important to them. Before attending the Community Conversation, participants are encouraged to review a pre-recorded tour of the Redline exhibit, led by exhibition guide Alexzia Plummer.
