Pushout: The Criminalization of Black Girls in Schools
Join United Women in Faith for a special screening of Pushout: The Criminalization of Black Girls in Schools. The film screening will be followed by a small group discussion open to all and an information-sharing session for those interested in offering a similar program in their local context.
About the Film: Pushout: The Criminalization of Black Girls in Schools is a feature length documentary which takes a close look at the educational, judicial and societal disparities facing African American girls. The documentary is based on Dr. Monique W. Morris’ groundbreaking book of the same name and confronts the ways in which the misunderstanding of Black girlhood has led to excessive punitive discipline which in turn disrupts one of the most important factors in their lives – education.
This event is hosted by United Women in Faith. There is no cost to participate. All are welcome.
