Black At: A Black Students Matter Movement
Examining the multifaceted experiences of black students within America's predominantly white private Pre-K-12 schools, this documentary exposes the pervasive internalized, interpersonal, and systemic racism they face. Sparked by the Black At Movement, which ignited on Instagram amidst the 2020 racial justice protests, the film validates the resilience of black students, empowering them to challenge the status quo and pioneer a path toward a more inclusive future.
