NESSC School Redesign in Action

In this session we will watch Vermont filmmaker Bess O'Brien's new film, "I am From Here," which explores the experiences and viewpoints of children of color in predominantly white schools. The film features students of color, teachers, and social justice leaders talking about the realities and impact of racism in Vermont, and it is designed to help educators think about the implications for our teaching and the design of schools. The film will be followed by a facilitated discussion. We welcome all participants at the SRIA conference, particularly our participating students, to join the session.
