400 Years Of Inequality Timeline
The 400 Years of Inequality Timeline is a powerful tool for studying the history, ingenuity, oppression and resilience of black and indigenous people in America. Designed by students at Columbia University, the timeline and its complementary curriculum are free to download.
Reparations opportunity:
