American Writers Museum

The American Writers Museum will expand the reach and impact of its "My America: Immigrant and Refugee Writers Today" exhibit through a new website, "My America: The Next Generation." The website will provide an online creative writing resource for middle and high school students. It will feature online curricula, live-streamed interactions with authors, discussion forums, and other specially designed resources for communities with high populations of immigrant and refugee students. The website will be designed to inspire and encourage creative writing and to increase awareness and understanding of issues related to immigration. It will benefit teachers by offering new resources for teaching creative writing that are applicable to social studies and the humanities.
