How can we rethink the way colonialism and its legacy is taught in schools?
Jacob V Joyce and Rudy Loewe‘s Sweet Rebellion, responds to the histories of British sugar plantations and the black activism that contributed to their abolition. It uses art and storytelling to fill in the blanks and build on the narratives of resistance that have been hidden or erased. The resource is an invitation for History and Art teachers in Years 7–9 to rethink the ways we talk about colonialism and its legacy in schools.
