We are making original multimedia materials with artists, writers, researchers, and community leaders as well as digitizing, annotating, and sharing historical images and sound recordings in collaboration with libraries, museums, and collections. These open educational resources are being shared with teachers and students at no cost. They are licensed for classroom use.

In many cases, our open educational resources incorporate third-party content for which we have secured permission. In some instances, materials are included for nonprofit educational purposes under the doctrine of fair use as provided for in Section 107 of US Copyright Law.

Except where otherwise noted, our teaching materials are shared under a Creative Commons License (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0), which requires authorial attribution and prohibits commercial use. In addition, this license prohibits sharing or publishing any work derived from our resources in any medium, including on the internet, without our permission. If you transform our materials into your own lessons or assignments and would like to share your work with other teachers, we would be eager to work with you to facilitate that process.

Our work is made possible by partners including New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts, Neighborhood Story Project, Historic New Orleans Collection, Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities, New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Foundation, Preservation Hall Foundation, Tulane University Special Collections, Xavier University Special Collections, Amistad Research Center, New Orleans Museum of Art, New Orleans Jazz Museum, and Whitney Plantation Museum. We have been generously supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities, Google Education, and the Division of Arts and Humanities at the University of California, Berkeley.
