Chapter 1.
The 400 Years Timeline
In order to see where we are going, we not only must remember where we have been, but we must understand where we have been.
- Ella Baker
Anchor 1
In this chapter, explore the Timeline using two ideas:
-
the Ecology of Inequality
-
and Moral Fusion Coalition.
The 400 Years Timeline was created by a class taught by Dr. Mindy Fullilove at The New School and used in workshops and observances throughout the United States. It is yours to explore.
In the video below, 400 Years organizing committee member Octavia Driscoll discusses the process of creating the timeline, and shares her reflections on the power of sitting with history.
