"The Children's March" tells the story of how the young people of Birmingham, Ala., braved fire hoses and police dogs in 1963 and brought segregation to its knees. Their heroism complements discussions about the ability of today's young people to be catalysts for positive social change.
"The Children's March" kit includes:
- A 40-minute teachers' edition of the Academy Award-winning documentary film, available in VHS or DVD format, with closed-captioning; and
- A teacher's guide with 9 standards-based lesson plans for social studies, language arts and music classrooms.
Produced by Teaching Tolerance in association with Home Box Office (HBO), "The Children's March," a film by Tell the Truth Pictures, also will air on HBO in 2005.
