The Discoverers’ Journey is a valuable tool we use to concretize months’ worth of in-class learning. During spring break 2016 we took a group of youth to Washington, D.C. and we got to meet with local elders and business owners; we also got to see historic sites and institutions. Our jam-packed itinerary included Ben’s Chili Bowl, Sankofa video, Books,& Café, Howard University, The MLK Memorial, The African American Civil War Museum, and more.
