Bring Herstory to Life: Help Us Create an Inclusive Crash Course Video Series!
At the Remedial Herstory Project, we’re reimagining how history is taught. Too often, women’s stories and the contributions of diverse communities are overlooked in classrooms worldwide. That’s why we’re launching an engaging Herstory Crash Course video series on YouTube—to make history education inclusive, accessible, and unforgettable!
What’s the Herstory Crash Course?
We’re producing a dynamic series of 7-10 minute videos that explore US and World History through the lens of women’s experiences and contributions. These episodes will feature:
- Stories of trailblazing women from around the globe.
- Contextualized narratives highlighting how women shaped history and culture.
- Visually engaging animations, expert insights, and classroom-friendly formats.
Each video will be available for free on YouTube, ensuring teachers, students, and lifelong learners have access to diverse, high-quality educational content.
Why It Matters
Representation in history matters. These videos will empower students with a richer, more inclusive understanding of the past, fostering critical thinking and breaking down stereotypes. By making this content freely available, we aim to reach audiences everywhere—regardless of geography or resources.
Your Support Brings Herstory to Life
With your help, we’ll:
- Cover production costs: From scripting and research to animation and editing.
- Engage expert voices: Historians, educators, and storytellers to ensure accuracy and impact.
- Promote accessibility: Subtitles, diverse language options, and open access for educators.
Our Goal
We need $3000 per video in this transformative series. Every contribution, big or small, helps us bring these vital stories to screens around the world.
