Abstract

The Oakland Education Association (OEA) organized a teach-in on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, calling for a cease-fire and an end to the Israeli occupation. The teach-in included curricular resources, a virtual panel, and guest speakers. The OEA for Palestine group assembled additional resources to provide diverse perspectives for students. Despite criticism and threats, the teach-in was successful, with many teachers and students participating. The organizers emphasize the importance of differentiating between legitimate critiques and unsubstantiated attacks and express a commitment to international solidarity. [Extracted from the article]
