The document is an introduction to Martin Luther King Jr.'s iconic "I Have a Dream" speech delivered at the 1963 March on Washington. It provides historical context on the Civil Rights Movement in the early 1960s, including campaigns like the Freedom Rides and Birmingham protests. It outlines King's rise as a leader of the movement and details the planning of the March. It also gives biographical information on King and describes the impact of his improvised call for racial equality that came to define the speech.

London Review of Books, Vol. 40, No. 19
This April, the Equal Justice Initiative, a non-profit law firm in Montgomery,
Alabama, opened a new museum and a memorial in the city, with the intention, as
the Montgomery Advertiser put it, of encouraging people to remember ‘the sordid history
of slavery and lynching and try to reconcile the horrors of our past’. The Legacy Museum
documents the history of slavery, while the National Memorial for Peace and Justice
commemorates the black victims of lynching in the American South between 1877 and
1950. For almost two decades the EJI and its executive director, Bryan Stevenson, have
been fighting against the racial inequities of the American criminal justice system, and
their legal trench warfare has met with considerable success in the Supreme Court. This
legal work continues. But in 2012 the organisation decided to devote resources to a new
strategy, hoping to change the cultural narratives that sustain the injustices it had been
fighting. In 2013 it published a report called Slavery in America: The Montgomery Slave
Trade, followed two years later by the first of three reports under the title Lynching in
America, which between them detailed eight hundred cases that had never been
documented before.
The United States sometimes seems to be committed to amnesia, to forgetting its
great national sin of chattel slavery and the violence, repression, endless injustices and
humiliations that have sustained racial hierarchies since emancipation. Stevenson has said
that, visiting Germany, he was struck by the number of memorials to the victims of the
Holocaust: the Stolpersteine, or ‘stumbling stones’, set in the ground in their thousands to
mark the names of the murdered in the places where they once lived; the Holocaust
Memorial near the Brandenburg Gate and its subterranean museum; the thousands of
other reminders all over the country of the evils done in the name of Germany – maps,
monuments, plaques, preserved concentration camps. Similarly, the Apartheid Museum
in South Africa bears witness to the racist system that dominated that country’s history;
monuments and plaques outside the constitutional court in Johannesburg recognise those
who suffered. There is no remotely comparable memorial culture in the United States to
the legacy of slavery.
‘Only through grappling with this difficult past can our country move in a
different direction,’ the Legacy Museum’s brochure begins. But the past is not past in
Montgomery. ‘You are standing on a site where enslaved people were warehoused,’ reads
the sign stencilled on a brick wall as you enter the museum. The first exhibit is a

holographic slave, about to be auctioned, who speaks to visitors from a small
underground cage. In the final exhibit holographic prisoners in orange jumpsuits sit
behind protective glass. The museum traces ...

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
