History Lives Here
Dr. Jenice L. View
Sunday, March 17 at 4:30 PM
7328 Carroll Avenue
Dr. View will talk about the ways schools and communities can use lessons from the historic civil rights movement to bring about social justice today. She also will share her experience with disseminating these ideas locally, nationally, and across the world.
Among her publications is the award-winning book Putting the Movement Back into Civil Rights Teaching, with a foreword by the late Congressman John Lewis. Her book is a featured title at the National Museum of African American History and Culture.
She is Associate Professor Emerita of Education at George Mason University. After careers in academia and the non-governmental sector, she is now co-owner with her two daughters of Three Points of View (3PV), a Black women-owned consulting group focused on education policy, program development, and cultural ambassadorship.
Dr. View grew up in Takoma Park, DC, where she currently resides, and is a proud product of DC public schools.
The annual Montgomery Preservation Awards for 2022 recognized two projects in Takoma Park. James and Dale Sloan were recognized for the sensitive renovation and enlargement of their early 20th-century bungalow in the Historic District of Takoma Park (on Maple Avenue). The County Executive’s Award went to Historic Takoma’s African-American Oral History Project for its efforts to preserve and share memories of life in the Black community through interviews and production of three videos.
