A film giving visibility to the power of organizing as a way to improve urban public schools
This film can be screened in organizations, workshops, classrooms, forums, conferences, community gatherings or in your own home
A Community Concern is sectioned into chapters, so that the film can be viewed:
* as a whole (75 mins)
* as individual stories: Oakland, The Bronx and Boston
* as a thematically grouped set of clips – see suggestions in Discussion Guide (coming soon)
The OAKLAND story shows how it is possible for community members, educators, and policy makers to come together to transform their School District.
The BRONX story shows how a group of organized youth can be the force behind designing their own high school.
The BOSTON story shows the importance of the relationship between school and parents, and how the school system adopted the reform that the community fought for.
