Please join us for a screening of La Guerra Contra Nuestras Escuelas/ War Against our Schools, a documentary project exploring the short and long term impact of school closings and privatization in Puerto Rico. After the screening, we will unveil the collaborative viewing guide created by Defend Puerto Rico and the Puerto Rico Syllabus to accompany the film. The guide features a microsyllabus exploring topics from the film, teaching tools, and advocacy resources that can be used in educational and community settings. Together, the film and viewing guide explore and historicize threats to public education in Puerto Rico and provide avenues for action needed to defend our schools.
