Forthcoming documentary on Arizona's elimination of ethnic studies

From Leigh Patel Stevens: "The documentary features disenfranchised high school seniors who become academic warriors and community leaders in Tucson’s embattled Ethnic Studies classes while state lawmakers attempt to eliminate the program. The film has won many awards and captures in rich detail the investment and subsequent turmoil felt by Latino students in the Ethnic Studies program. Unfortunately, with xenophobic backlash spreading wildly throughout the country, this is not just an Arizona issue but one that we should all be knowledgeable about."
