Students can also participate in project Soapbox at the RUSD Civics Showcase, where They give an original 2-4 minute speech on an important subject. These vital speeches have long-term beneficial consequences in schools, neighborhoods, and communities. For example, students at Soapbox Riverside spoke about the issue: "What is the most significant problem facing your community, and what should be done about it?"
According to a quote from Edsource, "Students must learn to self-advocate for issues they believe in a productive way without harming someone else or impugning the character of someone who disagrees with you," Nelson said. "Adults are not doing great now at modeling behavior for students."
