Discovery Center Exhibits

“Children of Courage: Young People and the Struggle for Civil Rights” is a Discovery Center exhibition created by the National Park Service for Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site in Atlanta, Georgia. The new exhibits and movie explore segregation in the 1930s, the Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s and 1960s, and civil and human rights issues around the world today...all from a young person’s perspective.

The direct involvement of young students and teachers in the planning process has been vital to this project. A professional media evaluator was a part of the project team to make sure that the exhibition is effective, sensitive, and relevant to young visitors.
