Amazing students from Storefront Academy, Brooklyn International - TopicsExpress



          

Amazing students from Storefront Academy, Brooklyn International High School and Harvest Collegiate High School (and 5,500 who were live streaming) asked probing, personal questions to Faiza Almontaser and her brother-in-law, Lieutenant Jamiel Altaheri, after the screening of POET AGAINST PREJUDICE at Lincoln Center. Talked about bullying and Muslim identity and the importance of finding common ground. A glorious and memorable way to spend 9/11 - in the presence of young optimism, honesty and curiosity. The room was filled with empathy. Thanks to all who participated and helped! #poetagainstprejudice #findingcommonground #albertmaysles #filmsocietyoflincolncenter #empathy #September11 #Iloveny #
