Teach Us All

Part documentary and part social-justice campaign, Teach Us All revisits the violent resistance to the desegregation of Central High in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1957. Sixty years after a group of African American students (known as the Little Rock Nine) defied racism and hatred to attend an all-white school, Teach Us All takes us back to the city where it all began.
The modern-day Little Rock school district once again faces upheaval as it navigates a recent state takeover and wrestles with civil rights issues facing schools across the nation. Educational inequality is at the forefront of this compelling documentary, leaving viewers with the lesson that some history is less settled than many would like to believe.

Each person enacted their beliefs in equity, access, and respect in order to provide a just and quality education for the learners they serve.
"Great teaching is about so much more than education; it is a daily fight for social justice." – Arne Duncan, former Secretary of Education
