The film will premiere on HBO Family Channel on February 8 and on HBO on February 11. It will be shown on both channels several times during the month.

The fifth video in the Teaching Tolerance series of multimedia curriculum kits, Mighty Times captures the spirit of the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott and the inspirational role of Rosa Parks. It was nominated for an Academy Award last year.

Distribution of the kit, which is free to educators, began in October 2002, and it has been viewed in more than 25,600 schools across the country.

The kit presents the birth of the Civil Rights Movement as more than a mere history lesson for the classroom but also as a model for young activists who are looking to make a positive change in their communities.

"We're delighted that the Center is allowing us to show Mighty Times," said Dolores Morris, vice president of HBO Family and documentary programming. "The film brings to life an important story and is a great piece of work."

To make Mighty Times, Teaching Tolerance teamed up with California filmmakers Bobby Houston and Robert Hudson. The two also produced the Center film A Place at the Table.
