The Right to Read | USA | Documentary | 80 min | Jenny Mackenzie

Learn the stories of an activist, a teacher, and two American families who fight to provide our youngest  generation with the most foundational indicator of life-long success: the ability to read.

Fed up with the bleak reading scores in his own community, activist Kareem Weaver files an NAACP petition  demanding change in Oakland schools' reading curricula. Working with Ms. Causey, a first-grade teacher in the  lowest-performing school, the two go against district mandates to bring in evidence-based literacy tools to see  if they can turn reading scores around.

Following the screening there will be Q&A with Heather Haynes Smith and Robert Rogers
