“Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America.”

-John Lewis 

U.S. Congressman – 

Chairman, Student Nonviolent

Coordinating Committee (SNCC)

Daring young people from Ruby Bridges to the Freedom Riders provided a dynamic pulse for justice during the movement.  Student-led activism sparked the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Learn how courageous students organized and risked it all to transform social norms. 

Through archival film footage and cultural songs, viewers are reminded that the movement is not just a part of history, but a part of present-day political reality.
