Documentary at Sac Crest Theatre

"From the Community to the Classroom" -- A youth-directed film documentary about how Davis young people led their community closer towards educational equity

Despite a reputation for having a highly educated community with progressive values, Davis is not immune to racial disparities in school outcomes and hurtful race relations.

Charting more than 7 years, “From the Community to the Classroom” documents the transformative power that youth can have on one community’s successful and ongoing quest for racial and educational justice. It is a timely illustration of the present-day application of Dr. King’s dream and of the work that still lies ahead.

Admission is free. A reception will follow the screening.

The event is also co-hosted by:
The Asian Pacific Islander Legislative Caucus
The Legislative Black Caucus
The Latino Legislative Caucus
