Not In Our Town

Not in our TownNot In Our Town (NIOT) is a national movement that encourages and connects people who are responding to hate and working to build more inclusive communities.

Not In Our Town uses the power of media, grassroots events, educational outreach and online activities to help communities talk to and learn from each other. Together, Not In Our Town communities share stories and strategies about how to foster safety, inclusion and acceptance.

Facing History is proud to partner with NIOT.org and has created curriculum for their Not In Our School (NIOS) program. This is a peer-to-peer learning program uses film and storytelling to encourage safety and inclusions. NIOS offers videos and online action tools to open the conversation about bigotry and harassment, and engages students and teachers in activities that promote respect and acceptance for all.
