  1. @RosyMaths For anti-bias education, a great film for your students' age range might be Whale Rider. It streams for free in many regions. It tells a compelling story of a girl around your students' age pursing her destiny despite other people's prejudice. And it's a good starting point for discussions about gender, culture, and identity.

    We hope this helps! If you have more questions or requests, please let us know! 2/n

  2. #OTD in 1897, the first International Congress of Mathematicians was held in Zürich, Switzerland. The congress even included four women!

  3. We were excited to spy Whale Rider on this Kanopy poster at #ALAAC24! We are big fans of the award-wining coming-of-age film about a Māori girl who challenges tradition to fulfill her destiny. Students love it!
