@UNCWorldView Looking forward to future chats :) #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@UNCWorldView A6: On a basic level, I will continue to look to people like John Lewis as models and exemplars in standing up and speaking out and have the conviction to do my part in moving the needle of justice forward whenever and however I can #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@UNCWorldView A5: His patience, his honesty, his conviction, which was certainly rooted in his faith, and that he genuinely believed in and appealed to the goodness in all people #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@nickallen000 @UNCWorldView I hadn't considered that element but it's a very interesting point. #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@UNCWorldView A4: a firecracker won't cultivate lasting, sustainable change. It's not rooted or grounded. It will flash and burn. A pilot light is constant #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@UNCWorldView @SarahWrightSays Yes, the eye contact element was very striking. And makes so much sense in terms of trying to establish a connection with one's attacker but must have been extraordinarily difficult to follow through with in the moment #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@nickallen000 @UNCWorldView Absolutely. And studying the examples of how others before them had been successful provided a roadmap of sorts. @WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@UNCWorldView A3: Lewis' description of the role-plays, the "social dramas", was fascinating. I can't even imagine the courage they mustered up to follow through with their activism given the scenarios they put themselves through. #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@nickallen000 @UNCWorldView They also created original works of art inspired by the oral histories and displayed at the Center and the Chapel Hill Public Library. Many students were surprised by how little they knew about their own town's CR history #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@nickallen000 @UNCWorldView I love this mural. It's very powerful. I've also engaged my students with oral histories in learning about Civil Rights. @WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@nickallen000 @UNCWorldView My US History students a few years back collaborated with the Marian Cheek Jackson Center to process oral histories from residents of the Northside community who were teenage activists in Chapel Hill's 1960s Civil Rights movement #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@UNCWorldView That it is the story of countless people, famous and not famous, moving the needle of justice forward each and every day and that they themselves have the opportunity to be agents of change #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@UNCWorldView A2: Teaching about Civil Rights is one of the areas I've felt is most important in addressing in my US History classes and over time, not just in a single unit or handful of lessons. Addressing it throughout past and present and how it connects to students lives #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@UNCWorldView A1: Hello from Mebane in Alamance County. I too was thinking generous but steadfast also comes to mind . #WorldViewChats

@ChristinekClark @UNCWorldView @ncglobaled It is always interesting to see what misconceptions need unpacking. The Everyday Projects are helpful in some of this "mythbusting" #WorldViewChats

@UNCWorldView @ncglobaled A5: In addition to Google Arts and Culture, Smithsonian Folkways and the Global Jukebox have excellent resources for exploring diverse cultures, especially through music #WorldViewChats

[Holly Loranger @loranger_holly]

@UNCWorldView @ncglobaled A5: Global Oneness Project is an outstanding resource for this purpose too #WorldViewChats https://t.co/9q8oak59kB
