Grrrl Justice Film Screens 10/8 on OVEE!

Visionary Justice StoryLab is excited to present an online screening of Grrrl Justice in partnership with OVEE, an entity of ITVS and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. This event will highlight resources for educators and community facilitators.  Free and open to the public.

A short narrative film, Grrrl Justice follows the stories of three characters - one being released from juvenile detention, another being exploited by a sex trafficker, and one navigating the school to prison pipeline. The film examines how traumatic backgrounds including family violence, racism, poverty, sexual abuse, homophobia and transphobia attach young people to systems that criminalize them, rather than alleviate the impacts of systemic oppression in their lives. It also takes an honest look at how these youth are employing their agency, body autonomy, and healthy resistance in pursuit of their own liberation.
