Purpose of this page
As a guide for you on this learning journey you are on, I want to be able to help you become aware of some amazing resources that will help you think critically about the topics that interest you.
Over the years, I have been doing this with my students and they find awesome resources that helped their learning and they have shared them with me.
I believe I should pass these on to you because maybe they will be what finally makes something make sense for your thinking.
Below you will find documentaries, websites to national/international/local nonprofit organizations, museums, digital libraries, ect.
Some of the topics are separated but when experiencing inequality, most of these topics overlap to compound the complexity in addressing the issue with one simple task.
