Why Civics?
Historical events are tied to one another as they shape the present and future of a nation.
The purpose of the interactive timeline is to help learners understand the chronology of U.S. social justice movements, and to contextualize the impact of activism even before the legal age to vote.
Students of civics can study the history of U.S. activism in order to better understand how social movements have used the 1st Amendment to further the cause for social justice.
By learning about the obstacles that others have faced in the past, the learner, can understand their place in a long American tradition of advocating for freedom and human rights even before they become old enough to vote.
By viewing social justice movements of the past, the learner will identify their impact on society and realize their own passion drives changes to better improve our society.
We want learners to be inspired by the past to understand what is possible for them in the future.
