INDIVIDUAL DISCUSSION GROUP
Inspired...or Insane?!
Riley and Reed aren't sure that Henry's ideas are good ones - but they're willing to give them a shot in the name of "Becoming Men of Action and Daring" who "Alter the Course of History" and, with luck, "Impress Girls".

YOUNG ADULT DISCUSSION GROUP
The Girl Who Dared!
Before Rosa Parks made her famous stand against discrimination, an African-American teenager named Claudette Colvin was asked to give up her seat on a segregated bus. She refused. But instead of becoming a hero for fighting against racism, Claudette was shunned by her community. It's time her story was told.

FAMILY DISCUSSION GROUP
"Telling the truth don't come easy to me, but I will try, even if old Truth ain't nearly as useful as a fib sometimes."
Homer has been involved with runaway slaves and slave catchers, ridden on a train, sailed on a steamship, been an attraction in a traveling Medicine Show, was accused of being a spy, had a close encounter with a hot air balloon, and witnessed the battle of Gettysburg. He's going to tell you all about it - the whole truth and nothing but the truth...Mostly.
