Testimonial

Having the opportunity to work with AFLCT has been truly beneficial; they've provided unique experiences that have positively impacted our students. Their professional artists are strong role-models who encouraged students to take risks, find their voices, and be confident young people. They assisted in the process of inspiring our students to discover their individual identities and be able to self-assuredly express and share their ideas and opinions.

Description

As a certified trainer in Kingian Nonviolence through CTCN (The Connecticut Center for Nonviolence) I teach the Six Principles of Dr. MLK Jr. The emphasis is on "moving through these ideas" using movement vocabulary created with and by the students. Often a component to this is a visual arts project using collage to create an abstract piece of Art that focuses on one of the six principles that resonates with the student.

Objectives

To provide students with a better more complete understanding of the goals of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. To enable them to start to embrace these principles, making them become a part of our everyday living.
