A class of Harrisburg third grade students created a social justice quilt last year with hopes to bring awareness and make a change.

This year the quilt, which was created by St. Stephen’s Episcopal School students, has been displayed at the MLK City Government Center in Harrisburg.

The quilt consists of fabric squares, where each child depicted themes around identity and social justice.

JoAnn Baldwin, a third grade teacher at the Episcopal school, called the class who participated in this project, the “change makers” which set the tone before they were put to the task.

JoAnn, thank you so much for joining us today to discuss this topic.
