The National Civil Rights Museum’s Freedom Award Student Forum is a celebration for and by young trailblazers. Presented by FedEx and Ford Philanthropy, this year’s hybrid event is open to school groups nationally as an opportunity for educators and students in 5th-12th grade to be inspired by the purpose-driven lives of Freedom Award honorees.
The student Keeper of the Dream Award will also be presented at the Student Forum to recognize he hard work and dedication of young people who take action and demonstrate a commitment to ensuring equal rights and opportunities for others.
The Museum extends an invitation to classrooms to virtually engage, via a moderated YouTube chat room, with up to 2,500 in-person students and educators. Teachers, college students and groups, and community youth group leaders planning to experience the Student Forum should register online.
