KQED Summer Broadcast of Not In Our School: Palo Alto

Submitted by Mcornelius on June 27, 2011 - 1:58pm

"We all must fight against discrimination and harassment. I am proud that the Palo Alto Unified School District, through Not in Our School activities, has become a model for other school districts taking action against intolerance and bullying. And the word keeps spreading. This is a great start, but we must remain diligent if we really aim to reduce intolerance and harassment."

—Palo Alto Mayor Sid Espinosa in the Palo Alto Patch article, "Not In Our School: Palo Alto Returns to KQED."

Yesterday, KQED aired an updated version of our Not In Our School: Palo Alto program, including footage from this year’s Not In Our School week at Gunn High School and students' response last year to the Kansas-based Westboro Baptist Church. The short video, "Gunn High School Sings Away Hate Group" went viral, receiving more than 200,000 views on Not In Our Town's YouTube channel. 

Not In Our School: Palo Alto will air 12 more times this summer and again when school starts in the fall. Below you’ll find a list of upcoming air dates. You can also sign up for email reminders of a particular airing on the KQED website.
 
Program Description
In Palo Alto, student leaders, administrators and teachers put on an annual Not in Our School month of activities about preventing intolerance, including class discussions, a dissolving stereotypes pool, Not In Our Town video screenings, and student-produced videos. Palo Alto's Not In Our School month has become a model for engaging students in discussion and action against intolerance and bullying.
