Explore the Pine Project
I’m Your Neighbor Books and the Maine DOE produced the Pine Project: Professional Development, a self-led, SEL-driven training you can take —anonymously.
It is designed to increase your ability to talk about race, culture, and the barriers and pathways to classroom and community belonging.
Within the Pine 3 module (timestamp: 18:22-34:00), award-winning author and educator M.O. Yuksel shares how false and repeated narratives about a community can lead to violence against a community and how books can completely transform one’s perceptions.
