The Underrepresentation Curriculum is a flexible curriculum designed to help students critically examine scientific fields and take action for equity, inclusion and justice. I’m speaking with Angela Flynn and Moses Rifkin, two editors for the project who are also developing and using the curriculum in their classrooms. Learn all about the project, the resources you can access, and the community you can join.

To learn everything we can about the Underrepresentation Curriculum Project, I’m speaking with Angela Flynn, a teacher at the Gordon School, a nursery-8 independent school in Rhode Island, and Moses Rifkin, a science teacher at University Prep, a 6-12 independent school in Seattle, Washington. They are part of a team of 12 editors for the curriculum.
