On Thursday, January 14, starting at 6:00 pm, Lowell will be hosting a screening of Virtually Free, which explores the impact of historic systemic racism in the United States on personal attitudes about race, the evolution of the current juvenile justice system, the realities of detention for young teens, the impact of the school-to-prison pipeline, and steps communities can take to begin to dismantle it. The screening will be followed by a live panel discussion at 7:00 pm with director André Robert Lee and Brittany Mobley, a public defender in Washington, DC. Families are encouraged to attend this event with their students and then discuss all of the important things their student has learned throughout Social Justice Day.
