About the event
The Right to Read | USA | Documentary | 80 min | Jenny Mackenzie
Presented by Fort Worth Report
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.
ALL-ACCESS FESTIVAL PASS HOLDERS will have first access into the auditorium when doors open, followed by individual ticket holders.
Proceeds from individual ticket sales will go to Reading Partners
