'Freedom Riders'

'Freedom Riders' film on PBS
After watching the clip on the film we'll have  small discussion about what this issue means to us and how digital media has given us an opportunity to shine light on issues that are important to us.

I would also like you all to brainstorm issues that are personally important to you.  Try and think of topics that SMART talks about, or issues that are neglected in mainstream media and history books.  If you had the chance to put together your own film or some other type of digital piece what would you want to talk about?  What would you want people to take from it?
