With the events and concerns of this summer, the Minnesota Science Teachers Association wants to provide opportunities for science educators to dialog about addressing social justice in the context of science instruction. To start the conversation we are offering a virtual gathering to hear the voices of students and teachers engaged in this struggle on a daily basis.
