The Adultification of black youth
This film explores the topic, ‘The Adultification of Black Youth”. Students at Carson High School decided to tackle this problem with the goal of discovering ways to better cope in mainstream society while bringing awareness to others.
This film was created during a film workshop series with Young Moviemakers of America (YMA) during the spring 2024 semester.
"If our stories aren't told by us, they aren't told correctly."
