PUSHOUT: Documentary Screening & Panel Discussion

  • Eaton DC 1201 K Street Northwest Washington, DC, 20005 United States (map)

Join the Gen Z's of Harriets Wildest Dreams for a screening of PUSH OUT: THE CRIMINALIZATION OF BLACK GIRLS IN SCHOOLS.

This is a feature length documentary which takes a close look at the educational, judicial and societal disparities facing Black Girls. Inspired by the groundbreaking book of the same name by renowned scholar, Monique W. Morris, Ed.D. The documentary 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, their education.

This screening will be followed by a panel discussion led by our Gen Z fellows.
