44 The content of the history and legacy of slavery in Maryland (within the above context) must be included in the MSDE documents (Outcomes / Indictors, Standards, Core Learning Goals / Indicators) that drive the state's assessment initiative. To be adequately addressed, the content must be spiraled throughout several years of instruction. Without this accountability from the State, the content will not be a focus area within and among the local districts. By infusing this content into the curriculum and providing training for teachers and administrators, our students, regardless of their heritage, will appreciate the rich history and legacy of Africa and its impact on Maryland, America, and the rest of the world. Also, we need to undertake additional research to clarify certain educational curriculum connections such as the following: 1. Commitment to the importance of access to information by Maryland educators and students 2. Inclusion in Bylaw "Education That Is Multicultural" COMAR 13A.04.05.01-.04 [See Appendix B.] 3. Financial Commitment for Professional Development to fully Implement Bylaw "Education That Is Multicultural"
