Janice Grant, Civil Rights activist and storyteller in the Center for Art, Design and Visual Culture’s touring humanities project, For All the World to Hear: Stories from the Struggle for Civil Rights, was interviewed for Baltimore Magazine this month. Grant speaks candidly about her experiences growing up in segregated Maryland, and the interview not only provides insight into her life at the time of the Civil Rights Movement, it provides a snapshot of what one can expect to hear at For All the World to Hear. Read the interview at Baltimore Magazine.
For All the World to Hear, is a community outreach project that features approximately a dozen area seniors who speak, write, perform and digitally publish personal stories about their struggle for civil rights, that debuted at UMBC in the fall. A full program will return to campus Friday, February 15. Find out more about the project, and discover other performance dates at foralltheworldtohear.org.
