Hope in Detroit Public Schools

This is an important step in spreading our message of liberty and free markets to the next generation Hello Friend, I’m very excited to share that the Foundation for Economic Education (FEE) is partnering with Detroit Public Schools to teach liberty and bring hope to 3,500+ 10th and 11th-grade students this year. FEE Teacher Training and Revolution of One, in collaboration with the Michigan Council on Economic Education, established a partnership with the Detroit Public Schools Community District to assist with their social studies curriculum. This is an important step in spreading our message of liberty and free markets to the next generation. Since 2019, FEE’s Revolution of One initiative has aimed to engage geographic areas and audiences that the freedom philosophy typically doesn’t reach. Let me introduce myself. My name is Zilvinas Silenas, President of FEE. Our mission is to make the ideas of liberty familiar, credible, and compelling to the rising generation. That’s why I’ve set a goal to raise $12,000 this week to support our work in schools — in Detroit and throughout our country. [Will you help FEE deliver liberty and hope in more public schools by sending a gift of $10, $25, $50, or any amount today?

Economics teachers at 24 Detroit high schools will deliver the curriculum this Spring. It will include eight days of content that explores: - The effects of big government and central planning programs such as “redlining” - Other types of historical government-imposed economic discrimination - The impacts of these programs, which still affect people today As a component of the curriculum, a Revolution of One speaker will deliver a direct-to-student educational workshop entitled “The Comeback Kid.” This workshop will highlight the government's failures that caused the discriminatory “redlining” practices while empowering students to employ the ideas of liberty to escape the “victim mindset.” Ultimately, Revolution of One will help students process what they’ve learned, channel their frustrations about cruel historical economic realities, and inspire them to pursue freedom in their individual lives.

An estimated 3,500-5,000students will hear from FEE about how to overcome the obstacles built by government intervention in the market and achieve their dreams. And most importantly, we’re able to share hope — hope that our country isn’t evil, hope that lines of division will disappear, and hope for a better tomorrow. But FEE can’t do it alone. That’s why we partner with school systems like Detroit and individuals who believe in liberty and free markets. That’s why I want to partner with you, friend. Friend, can you help support hope and liberty in the classroom? I hope you’ll consider sending your support and help us meet our goal of raising $12,000 this week. Click below to donate.
