Bronx History Collaborative Project - a Model for the Nation

Please join Internet radio host Dr. James Avington Miller Jr. for a glimpse into the Bronx History Collaborative Project. Joining us for this show will be Dr. Mark Naison and Aixa Rodriguez, Fordham alumnus and teacher at Fannie Lou Hamer Freedom High School in the Bronx.

This project is a joint collaboration between Fordham University Bronx African American History Project, and the Bronx Consortium High Schools. The project connects the university with public school teachers and students and is a model for project-based teaching and learning for the nation. This is a return to sane practices and healthy community collaboration.

"Aixa Rodriguez and Dr. Naison were able to combine forces and to create the Bronx History Collaborative, which is an umbrella term for the two courses they teach and is a representation of what these two Bronx schools are trying to accomplish. 'It’s trying to break down the walls between Fordham, and local schools,' said Naison."

Please tune in this Sunday and learn about this great project and perhaps be inspired to begin a collaboration like this in your own community.

Knowledge is power!

RESISTANCE MATTERS
RESISTANCE IS NOT FUTILE
RESISTANCE IS THE HIGHEST FORM OF EXPRESSION OF DEMOCRACY
RESISTANCE IS SURVIVAL
