Classrooms of Democracy: Elaine Weiss

  • Resumen

  • We discuss the history of citizenship schools, their profound importance in the Civil Rights Movement, and the critical lessons they offer for our present moment.

    Elaine’s civic action toolkit recommendations are:

    1. Share the power of voting with your neighbors.

    2. Start your own community citizenship schools!

    Elaine Weiss is a journalist, speaker, and author of Spell Freedom: The Underground Schools that Built the Civil Rights Movement. She’s also the author of The Woman’s Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote, which was a source for the Broadway musical SUFFS.
