Join
Dr. Martin Luther King on The Road to Freedom. From
his first encounter with racism to his immortal speech delivered
on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, Dr. King walks students
through the experience of the civil rights movement. Students
make discoveries with Dr. King as he encounters the teachings
of some of the great historical figures who fought for freedom
before him: Henry David Thoreau, who introduced him to the
concept of civil disobedience, and Mahatma Gandhi, who showed
him that nonviolent resistance was the most powerful weapon
in the fight for equality.
Incorporating the spiritual music that became the underscore
of the movement, The Road to Freedom helps young people
recognize that they can change their world peacefully. Geared
for students in grades 3-12, this presentational theater piece
is ideal for Black History Month, and is a perfect addition
to an American history curriculum.
