What is this? A video competition for youth to imagine the future of math class in an anti-racist world.

Who is sponsoring this? The Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) is a non-profit organization for professional mathematicians dedicated to research in mathematics, but also to building a better world for young people through hosting public events such as the National Math Festival.

Who is invited? Youth in the United States who are ages 13-18 at the time of submission. This is an individual or team project. If submitting as a team, you may have 2-10 students on your team, including on- and off-camera roles. A teacher at your school or another adult must upload the final video.

What do I do? Record your video (3 minutes or less) and ask your teacher or another adult to upload it to the Gather Voices platform using the prompts below.

What will you do with the submissions? Video entries will be posted to the National Math Festival website and/or shared on our social media channels (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram). You can also view the NMF Gather Voices Privacy Policy.
