The second annual IWitness Video Challenge follows last year's highly successful inaugural challenge. Many students were inspired by testimony to produce positive values in their communities – they fed the hungry, worked to bring an end to violence in their schools, and fought social injustice.

IWitness invites teachers (US & Canada) and their secondary students to participate in the Challenge. Students learn from first-person views of history and they produce a 1-4 min. video essay to link their own voices to those in the archive. The Challenge is inspired by the legacy of Oskar Schindler, who exemplified how one person can make a difference. We invite you to help your students continue to act on this legacy.

The submissions deadline is May 8, 2015. Click here to enter.
