He even created a lesson plan during the summer of 2020. Then, a conversation with a student convinced him to take the leap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The student liked his lectures, she told him, but thought the history class that Kannan normally teaches was boring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That inspired Kannan to run with the course that fall. Students in his Black Studies course learn about topics such as the Black church, the Great Migration — when Black Americans migrated from the South to the North for jobs and other opportunities — and Black political figures such as Fannie Lou Hamer, a civil rights activist from Mississippi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not long after he started to teach the class during the 2020-21 school year, Kannan said, he noticed his students were more engaged with the material.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have much more buy-in. I love how my Black students, in particular, can’t tell the difference between my African American studies class and my American history class,” said Kannan, who teaches a diverse group of students. “Like they just see it as one in the same and it’s so beautiful.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Illinois, a 1990 state law requires schools to teach a unit of African American history. But more than 30 years after the Illinois law passed, gaps in the teaching of Black history remain. The law lacks an enforcement mechanism, and does not include a way to track when Black history is taught during the school year and what students are learning about it; there are no required textbooks or curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All that has left teachers like Kannan to create their own lesson plans and to push their districts to strengthen the curriculum to include key points in Black history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the Illinois law represents a sharp contrast to what is happening in Republican-led states such as \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.vice.com/en/article/wxdbwb/stope-woke-act-florida-crt-bill\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Florida\u003c/a>, \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://tn.chalkbeat.org/2023/1/12/23552718/implicit-bias-tennessee-school-employee-training-legislature\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tennessee\u003c/a>, and \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.texastribune.org/2021/12/02/texas-critical-race-theory-law/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Texas\u003c/a>, where legislators have passed so-called “anti-critical race theory” bills that limit how race and gender issues are taught in classrooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Florida Gov.
