“Teaching Social Studies” documentary talks about the challenges for teachers
Lambert was inspired to do the project after reading that the Texas Board of Education considered changing the usage of the word “slavery” to “Indentured servitude” in their social studies courses.
Lindsey Lambert is the director and producer and director behind the documentary “Teaching Social Studies”.
Teaching Social Studies documentary
Lambert was inspired to do the project after reading that the Texas Board of Education considered changing the usage of the word “slavery” to “Indentured servitude” in their social studies courses.
The film seeks to capture the struggles of educators currently teaching history due to an attempt to whitewash curriculums.
“As Americans, historically we bury stories that are uncomfortable. I grew up in a world (Texas) where I was taught a very vanilla version of history in public school. How should we talk to the next generation about the past?” said Lambert.
Help fund this project
Lambert has created a GoFundMe to help with the costs of the important project.
“The reason I’m asking for your help is that this story is time-sensitive.”
“Educators are trying to do their jobs and many local governments are intervening and micromanaging them,” the fundraiser reads.
As of today, the fundraiser has raised $8,500 out of its $20,000 goal.
