This teacher is a real person.
A film was made about her.
Her failures.
Her successes.


This clip is from the movie.

Teachers watch this video clip.
It moves me deeply.

CONTEXT.
She has a class of 
mixed race humans
mixed gang membership
mixed deprivation
mixed harsh experiences
a big mash up of circumstances
backgrounds
upstreams.

She asked them to write.
Nothing 'educational'
but about their OWN lives..............
AND she would not read them without permission
so "leave them in the cupboard if I can read them."

This clip starts when she opens the cupboard
and find it full of written work
L5 stuff
the move is powerful
A L5 movie

Click to watch this on full screen
and
feel it ...............






The movie title
FREEDOM WRITERS
