A Slice of the Community – Students’ Voices of Liberty

Nashville PBS’ Jerome Moore and Johnson Learning Center students and faculty explore Hawks Talk, Metro Nashville Public Schools’ first student-led podcast, and its new “Voices of Liberty” episodes about what it means to be American at the country’s 250th anniversary. The latest podcast interviews were inspired in part by the recent Ken Burns American Revolution series.

Jerome and the students will also challenge myths about alternative schools.

This event is free, but reservations are required. Food will be provided by Five Points Pizza, Slice‘s official pizza sponsor.

Doors open at 6 p.m.; the taping begins promptly at 6:30 p.m.

This project is supported in part by the Tennessee Commission for the United States Semiquincentennial.
