When a child tells his aunt about a bully on his bus, she gives him advice by recounting the tale of Rosa Parks and the events that led to a revolution in racial justice. This poignant Yearning To Learn production includes many songs of the Civil Rights era, and the important contributions of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to bring this historical time to life. Through this exploration of the Civil Rights Era, students learn key elements in the struggle for fundamental rights and human dignity for African Americans and how individuals can work together to fight injustice and oppression.
