An inspiring time-travel adventure that teaches kids the powerful legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
What begins as a routine class project for a diverse group of sixth-graders turns into a magical, time-traveling adventure they'll never forget!
Our Friend, Martin is a powerful, imaginative, and educational journey through the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blending history with time-travel adventure, this film is widely regarded as one of the most effective tools for teaching children about the civil rights movement—and it's as emotionally impactful as it is engaging.
The story follows Miles, a struggling student, and his best friend Randy as they visit a museum dedicated to Dr. King. A mysterious watch and a baseball glove send them on a time-traveling adventure through key moments in King's life—from childhood friendship in a segregated neighborhood, to leading the Montgomery Bus Boycott, to witnessing the injustice of the Birmingham riots, and finally, the iconic "I Have a Dream" speech at the March on Washington. Along the way, they see firsthand the courage, wisdom, and peaceful strength that made Dr. King a hero for all people.
When the boys accidentally change the timeline and witness a world where King's work never happened, the devastating consequences reveal just how vital his leadership was. Ultimately, the film delivers a moving message: while we can't change the past, we can shape a better future—by standing up for what's right.
With strong performances, emotional depth, and powerful historical moments, Our Friend, Martin is more than just a movie—it's a vital teaching resource and an unforgettable tribute to the legacy of Dr. King.
