ARTIST PROMPTS
African Americans have done many important jobs to help build our country. Pick a job you admire and share how their hard work inspires you.
If you had a job during a time when Black workers fought for fairness, how would you help? What would you say about working together and standing up for what’s right?
Black people have helped shape many jobs. If you could interview a Black worker from the past, who would it be and why?
