Throughout the months of January and February, students in grades 2-4 will participate in programs with Wee the People, a Boston-based social justice project for kids, parents, and educators exploring activism, equity, and resistance through interactive workshops.

Everywhere and Nowhere: Native Americans focuses on the indigenous experience in America.

What does it mean to belong? What happens when we leave home and all the things that make us who we are? This workshop explores indigenous stories of migration, home, displacement and belonging accompanied by live music and an activity. 

More information will be provided by teachers as each class’s presentation approaches. All workshops will take place virtually on Wednesdays.
