"Raise Your Voice" is a documentary about the Parkland student journalists of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and their response to the 2018 school shooting through reporting, memorial writing, and civic action. The film connects student press freedom, the First Amendment, and the landmark Supreme Court case Tinker v. Des Moines, featuring Mary Beth Tinker as a historical link between past and present youth activism. Key concepts include freedom of speech, freedom of the press, journalism ethics, censorship, civic engagement, gun violence advocacy, resilience, and constitutional rights. The video supports U.S. history, civics, government, media literacy, and social-emotional learning curricula by showing how journalism can document tragedy, inform communities, and inspire democratic participation.
