A Standing Ovation For Upstanders

October 27, 2009

In the Huffington Post, Deborah Plummer writes about the October 21 opening event for Facing History and Ourselves' Choosing to Participate exhibit in Cleveland. She highlights the "Upstanders: Portraits of Courage" component of the exhibit that features portraits and inspirational stories of 25 local community members that have chosen to take a stand.
 
"Upstanders remind me of how to take that information and act responsibly in a collective capacity. Upstanders help me to expand my vision and believe that we can create the kind of world where everyone matters. And for that, I give them a standing ovation." - Deborah Plummer
