National Endowment for the Humanities Summer Teacher Institute Grades 6-12 humanities teachers are invited to apply for the National Endowment for the Humanities Summer Teacher Institute to learn about the 1898 coup and massacre. The Institute will occur at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington July 8-19, 2024.   This two-week residential workshop for middle and high school teachers will focus on the November 10, 1898 Wilmington coup and massacre, the only successful coup d'etat in our nation's history. Reconstructing the historical memory of this event, in which scores of Black Wilmingtonians were murdered or exiled, has always been a contested endeavor. The white supremacist regime that replaced the duly elected biracial government characterized November 10 as a race riot and used it as a pretext to exclude Black citizens from political participation.   Institute participants will meet leading scholars, filmmakers, descendants, and authors and learn not only about the 1898 Wilmington massacre and coup, but also it centrality within the broader national discourse on democratic values. In addition, they will tour a variety of relevant locations throughout the Port City and design curricula to implement in their own classrooms.   Chosen participants will receive a $2200 stipend and a certificate for ~80 contact hours. Additionally, weekday breakfasts and lunches will be provided, and there is an option to stay on campus at the rate of $32.50 per night.   For more information and to apply for the Institute visit www.wilmington1898geographices.org. The deadline to apply is March 5.
