Kids Can Change the World Ft. Cynthia & Meira Levinson

Mother and daughter Cynthia and Meira Levinson share their new books on how civic involvement among kids and teens can change the world. In We’ve Got A Job, Cynthia Levinson tells the story of the Children’s March in Birmingham, Alabama, when kids and teens flooded the streets and the jails of the city to fight segregation. In No Citizen Left Behind, Meira Levinson draws on her experience teaching in an all-black Atlanta school to make a case for education reform aimed at civic involvement and closing the “civic empowerment gap” that divides black and white students.
