How our Class Bundles Work
Bundles are collections of classes. Class bundles are designed to deepen learning on a variety of topics. At Reconstruction there are two types of bundles for you to experience.
1.Bundles of classes that can be taken in a specific order to build learning from one class to another
2.Bundles of classes that can be taken in any order you choose. Take one class after another based on your interests to deepen learning
What’s Being Taught in this class bundle?
Black women are leaders of literature. Their legacies are rooted in writing that eloquently captures the intersections of gender, race, class and power. Through the voices of queens from the past and present, #BlackGirlMagic is the energy in these reading classes. Read books from Zora Neale Hurston and Toni Morrison to Michelle Obama and Yaa Gyasi.

About this class
Becoming observes the life of the revered and beloved Michelle Obama. Obama’s storytelling--like the works of art in this unit--are told in her own words and on her own terms. Students will follow the story of a young, fierce girl from the South Side of Chicago to her years as a lawyer and executive, and her years as the first Black Lady of the United States.
As a culmination of #BlackGirlMagic, students will discuss their own stories, identities, and aspirations in manifesting their own Black Excellence.
