It's Day 4 of No Name-Calling Week [1]. Today we are sharing one of our most popular Not In Our School [2]videos, "Students Teach Students to Stand Up to Bullying," filmed at Shaw High School in East Cleveland, Ohio.
Students in Lori Urogody-Eiler's Facing History and Ourselves [3] class mentor younger students in how to be an upstander, not a bystander, when faced with bullying and intolerant acts. This version was included in our MLK-inspired collection, Embracing the Dream: Lessons from the Not In Our Town Movement, and is preceded by a short clip featuring Not In Our Town Billings [4] chair Eran Thompson.
For more information, our education partners at Facing History and Ourselves offer classroom resources on Bullying and Ostracism [5].
