The Masculinity Project: Remix: Shaker Heights 5mins 22secs

Produced by Stuart Math. Remix produced & edited by Sabrina Gordon.

Race and education are at the core of the Shaker Heights documentary. After forty years of integration students at a local high school react to the school paper's reporting of a performance disparity between black students and white students. The result is honest conversations from youth who feel often unheard.
