BIPOC Affinity Groups Learning Through Exploration of History, Culture, and Community – Trip to D.C.

This grant funds a student-driven trip to Washington, D.C. that brings together the Hommocks and MHS BIPOC affinity groups for an experience that will nurture peer-to-peer relationships across schools. Building on conversations facilitated during monthly BIPOC affinity group meetings, students will visit the National Museum of African American History and Culture: A Smithsonian Museum, Howard University – a Historically Black College/University, the United States Capitol, and other landmarks where the country’s elected officials work to make policies and laws that impact all citizens.
