Learn about voting rights today and actions students can take to protect this “most powerful and precious right” for everyone.
This program introduces students to the importance of voting and the struggle for voting rights, past and present. Students examine primary source material — documents, photographs, and video — to learn about racial discrimination in voting during the Kennedy years and strategies that public officials, activists, and everyday citizens used to address it. The program also explores voting rights today and actions students can take to protect this “most powerful and precious right” for everyone.
This session is hosted by the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.
