This will only take a minute, we promise!
Fall is when you refresh lesson plans—and when we refresh our budget. For decades, we've made our resources available for free. Now that we've left Stanford to become a non-profit, we need your help to keep them free.
A contribution of $5—or a little more if you can—funds the next round of classroom-tested materials.
Budgets are tight. That's why we keep our ask small and our impact large. If our materials save you prep time and spark richer classroom discussions, please consider helping us keep them free.
This lesson uses Newark, New Jersey, as a case study of historical experiences after the Great Migration, the dramatic movement of African Americans from Southern states to Northern states. Students analyze three historical documents to answer the question: What was life like in Newark for African Americans after the Great Migration?
