    Education is one of the most important elements to a child’s future. But how that child is educated is even more important. These three short films bring a different perspective to how African American children from different socio-economic backgrounds share in the same struggles. Mainline Monologues (2005, 40 min), directed by Ellen Sall. This film interviews six generations of African American men and women who all went through the Lower Merion School District. Freedom School (2009, 26 minutes), directed by Amitanshu Das. This story profiles the Children's Defense Fund's Freedom School Summer Program in West Philadelphia. Trying Something New (2006, 23 minutes) Directed by Edward Basile. The Community Partnership School (CPS) provides children in lower income families with a more intensive reading structure than the average public school. This short documentary follows the school through its first few months of operation starting on the first day through the first parent day.
