Tragically, there have been multiple genocides in history. As indicated by the chart below, this topic should be better taught in schools. One genocide was unique in its relative recency, mechanization, planniing, scope and scale. It's the one referred to as "The Holocaust" ... which killed approximately 6,000,000 European-resident Jews from roughly 1941-1945. About 6 million non-Jews (political prisoners, gay people, persons then-living with disabilities and others) were also purposely killed outside of combat operations by the Nazis. As shown in the chart that appears below, US educators (and, I suspect, today's teachers in other countries as well) must do a better job of teaching this material. The US Holocaust Museum in Washington DC has amazing exhibits. By visiting this museum (and/or by checking out their online resources), teachers -- and parents too -- can teach their children well. The topic is difficult, but important to learn about, and learn from. Suggestion: do not start (or if you do, then start extra gently) any earlier than 6th grade (age 10/11), nor any later than grade 9 (age 13/14). #NeverForget #NeverAgain #NeverAgainstAnyone
"Get it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses - because somewhere down the track of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened." General Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1945 We need a radical disruption in American education (K12 and Higher Ed.). The results of this survey, even if the results were 50 percent lower, is shocking and an embarrassment. We plan to address this problem by launching private schools beginning this Fall in a campaign called "Operation Rescue." (https://lnkd.in/gaaxDMfT).

#K12 #superintendents take a multifaceted approach to addressing anti-Semitism and other types of discrimination on their campuses. Doug Roberts, Founder and CEO of the Institute for Education Innovation, spoke with WICC radio’s Melissa in the Morning this week to give listeners a better understanding of superintendents’ role in preventing such attacks. https://lnkd.in/eYh5e-Mn The first approach #education #leaders take is prevention. “These are things we fight hard against as leaders, and we do so by building cultures in our districts where people feel included and welcomed and supported,” he says. The second is more social-emotional #SEL awareness and funding thanks to initiatives at the federal, state, and local levels. “We were able to build up stronger networks for mental health supports,” Doug says. “If a student feels that they are subject to any sort of anti-Semitic attack, we have to make sure we are checking in with kids." Third, Doug emphasized that when incidents happen, they need to be teachable moments for the children responsible. Schools can have strong policies against hatred but at the same time attempt to understand why the students acted as they did and address the root causes through education and building better understanding. In early May, the leaders of some of the largest U.S. public school districts testified before Congress about steps they are taking to address anti-Semitism, and Doug urged Congress to take action too, such as re-upping mental health funding for schools. “Superintendents who went to D.C. made a strong showing for our profession,” he says. “We literally stay up at night thinking about how we can make sure every student in our schools feels safe.” #ThoughtLeadership #Schools #Inclusion #Respect #TeachableMoments #MentalHealth #Wellbeing
We’re proud to share that our Founder and CEO, Doug Roberts, was a guest on Melissa in the Morning, WICC 600 AM and 107.3 FM, discussing "Attacking Anti-Semitism at K-12 Campuses." During the conversation, Doug addressed the problem and potential solutions, shedding light on the Institute for Education Innovation (IEI) and its efforts. IEI is a network of over 100 K-12 superintendents committed to improving student outcomes.
