AMERICANS WHO TELL THE TRUTH (AWTT)

Americans Who Tell the Truth portraits and narratives highlight citizens who courageously address issues of social, environmental, and economic fairness and act for the common good, our communities, and the Earth. Take action by learning the history of these truth tellers and by bringing AWTT curriculum and resources into your schools and communities. If we don’t know our true past, we can’t build a better future.
