People’s History Lessons

to Fight Voter Suppression

Art by Ricardo Levins Morales

How can we fight voter suppression?


Equip young people with lessons from history on organizing for voting rights.


That is why GOP lawmakers are making it illegal for students to learn from history how to defend voting rights — at the same time they are making it harder to vote.

 

The “anti-CRT” campaign is what voter suppression looks like in school.

 

Textbooks ignore or minimize the long struggle for voting rights — and the equally long campaign to suppress these rights.

 

It is essential that the Zinn Education Project continue to provide free lessons to teach outside the textbook — and defend teachers’ right to teach a full and accurate history.


Provide teachers with peoples history lessons on voting rights in 2024.

The Who Gets to Vote? lesson led my students to reconsider the value of their voice in federal and local elections.


I taught it on election day and I believe that it inspired many of them to vote in the election, some of whom left for the polls straight from school! Thank you, as always, for your great resources!
