WRITING BOSTON’S FUTURE:
The Voice of Students and Teachers

This National Endowment for the Humanities supported program partners the Museum of African American History (MAAH) with the Boston Writing Project (BWP) at the University of Massachusetts Boston to help decolonize education for African American youth in secondary schools. Selected student and educator fellows resuscitated the spirit of Boston’s Black Abolitionists to help transform:

  • the curriculum,
  • teaching and learning, and
  • to support writing growth focused on racial equity.
