Student Video Contest

In partnership with the American Federation of Teachers and the Tribeca Festival, Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights created the annual Speak Truth to Power Video Contest, encouraging middle and high school students to use film as a tool to discuss human rights issues that resonate with them. In creating these short three- to - five minute videos, whether they be documentaries, narrative films or experimental, students not only learn about human rights, but also become champions of change and social justice. Students from all backgrounds can participate in the contest without needing expensive equipment or prior video editing skills. This year, special awards will be presented to filmmakers who use only an iPhone to create their videos. Deadline: April 20, 2022 Learn More: www.rfkhumanrights.org
