Join educators from the 9/11 Memorial & Museum as they uncover the experiences of underrepresented voices that are integral to the 9/11 story. Explore how to leverage first-person narratives and primary resources to bring diverse voices and stories into your classroom and allow students to make connections between 9/11, which is an entirely historical event for them, and the present day. This session will feature a highlight of new digital resources as well as a preview of our 2022 Anniversary in the Schools Webinar Program.
