Integrating Racial Justice Into Your High-School Biology Classroom: Using Evolution to Understand Diversity

In this guide, educators and authors David Upegui and David Fastovsky offer a pedagogical prescription for how you can integrate the study of racial justice with evolutionary biology in your existing high-school biology curriculum.

David Upegui is a Latino educator, with 12 years of teaching biology in an inner-city US high school. He has won the Presidential Award for Excellence in Math and Science Teaching and the Evolution Education Award [NABT].

David E. Fastovsky is Professor Emeritus of Geosciences at the University of Rhode Island, United States, where, for the past 36 years, he taught evolutionary biology and Earth and biotic history.
