It is a response to the September 11 tragedies and subsequent attacks on Arab-Americans. The 3-lesson, 25-page curriculum centers on issues of justice, fairness, and mislaid blame. Although the curriculum was created for middle and high school students, it can be used with adult learners. The curriculum is co-sponsored by The Justice Project and the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation (VVAF). It was designed by a team of EDC researchers and curriculum writers who were concerned that the terrorist attacks have created a hostile climate for Arab-Americans-much like the climate Japanese-Americans faced following the attack on Pearl Harbor. The curriculum is available on the EDC website.
