Whose Schools? (2012)

A for-profit charter school, Success Academy, is set to open in the Southside of Williamsburg. The Latino community opposes it, seeing the school as part of the wider gentrification movement and making Williamsburg more attractive for the richer class at their expense. They find the unexpected support of some white middle-class parents who believe in public schooling for all. Through organizing and protest, this divided neighborhood finds itself surprisingly united. (2012)
