This 26-page project guide walks teens through major social movements of the 20th century and the role art played in changing the status quo. Art provides an invaluable tool and is essential in the movement of social change. Whether it is protest signs or window displays, stories shared on social media or addressing a national platform, movement or music created from pain or joy, creative expression can expose reality, shift viewpoints, motivate movement, and enact change. There has never been social change throughout history that did not depend on dreamers and creative minds to imagine a new way of being, artists to illuminate the path so that others could see the possibilities of a different future, and bold creators to build systems and usher in a new era of existing.
