225 - Personal Statement




swampED show

Summary: Julie Dressner, director of the documentary “Personal Statement”, and Enoch, a student, join us for an eye-opening conversation about the barriers low-income students face accessing higher education. The film follows Enoch and two other seniors at Brooklyn high schools determined to get their entire classes to college, even though they aren't even sure they are going to make it there themselves. As always, we end with our Moment of Hope.
