50,000 Teachers Strong and Counting

As of this month, more than 50,000 teachers have registered to download the Zinn Education Project's free lessons that bring people's history into the classroom.

Our 50,000th registrant was Aitor Luna Olivares, a high school ESL/Bilingual teacher from Madison, Wisconsin.

I signed up because I want my students to hear the voices and perspectives missing from traditional historical narratives and textbooks, and to develop a critical understanding and engagement that empowers them to change their world. The website and the project's texts offer great, thought-provoking teaching tools to explore a fuller, richer history, and make history classes more engaging, more relevant.

Thanks to the support of teachers, parents, and activists like you, the lessons Luna Oliveres downloaded were FREE. Please give today to ensure that teachers can continue to access lessons that teach outside the textbook.

The Zinn Education Project is a grassroots collaboration of Rethinking Schools and Teaching for Change. Our work is funded almost exclusively by donations from individuals who want students to think critically about our history and their role in shaping the world today.

With your support, we are building a community of teachers bringing people's history lessons into the classroom and reaching millions of students each year.

Help us reach the next 50,000 teachers----donate today!

SPECIAL: Donations of $10 or more made by July 1 get a "Teaching Outside the Textbook" sticker.

	The goal of the Zinn Education Project is to introduce students to a more accurate, complex, and engaging understanding of United States history. www.zinnedproject.org
