Abstract:

Tami Moss is director of the Rise and Shine Freedom School, an after-school program held in the Bethel \"A\" Baptist Church in Brevard. The school began ten years ago with twelve children and today has more than fifty. \"The after-school tutoring program is designed to teach youth about justice and civil rights, but participants also come away with an education in their heritage and a sense of who they can become.\" Not one child who has completed the program has dropped out of school.
