Artists Fight Stereotypes

Inspired by the work of Wendy Ewald, this unit has been a favorite among students since I started teaching. While it has evolved from being a simple Image & Text project to a full choice project, students continue to fully appreciate the chance to speak their truth. I am always amazed at the work students can create when they feel like they have an audience and a platform to say what is truly on their minds. The work produced for this unit never fails to showcase just how perceptive and aware students are of societal flaws.
