Abstract: 

Enslavement is often misrepresented or taught incompletely in social studies education. Slavery and its legacies actively are impacting students and their communities. Knowledge is power and the goal of this unit plan is to encourage anti-racist thought and critical thinking to develop an understanding of enslavement and its impacts today.
