Speak Truth To Power is a curriculum through the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Human Rights dedicated to promoting the study and practice of human rights in classrooms across the world. Through the exploration of human rights defenders from a variety of countries, students come face to face with injustice and begin the process of organizing action within their communities. It is our hope that these students then become ripples of hope in living out the legacy of Robert Kennedy in his mission for peace.
