Each year, the National Youth Summit brings middle and high school students together with scholars, teachers, policy experts, and activists in a national conversation about important events in America’s past that have relevance to the nation’s present and future. During the 2022-23 academic year, students and teachers will be able to participate in a new program that provides opportunities to engage with critical issues and gain knowledge for creating a more just society, “Democracy: A National Youth Summit Civic Education Series.” Over the course of the year we will release resources and programming that addresses the question: How do the stories we tell about the past shape our democracy of the present and future? This video shares student and teacher testimonials from our previous year’s NYS program on Gender Equity to inspire participation.
