Wow! This is doing numbers, so let us add that if you are looking for resources to teach about Civil Rights and Black History (in the US and around the world), and/or if you enjoy international award-winning films that center Black stories, we recommend our Black History Collection.

Our educational resources are all free and they can be used across the curriculum. Many of the films stream for free as well!
