- Several years before James Dean patented the type in REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE, leather-jacketed, gum-chewing Mike here is a cute malcontent who just needs a little understanding to straighten up and fly right. Secretly worried he'll be "trapped into making his decisions against everything" (or so his English teacher muses in voiceover), he practices defense mechanisms that annoy his fellow students and hobble his classroom performance. Alert to the danger of his dropping out (and becoming a career ditch-digger like his wise-guy friend Eddie), staff counselor Mr. Tatum finds crafty ways to encourage Mike without lecturing him. Pretty soon he's knee-deep in constructive activities like electronics projects and playing in the school orchestra. On drums, of course! Mike may be tamed but he'll never be uncool. - Dennis Harvey

- The Brown vs. Board of Education case declared state laws establishing separate public schools for black and white students to be unconstitutional. But in the time since, how have black children benefited? This documentary makes the case that the education system within the United States is not only generally flawed, but particularly under serves black communities and black children. Within this film, the creators sat down with black academics to get their perspective on the current public school system and what alternative options that parents have to give children their best chance. Additionally, the film gives insight into two homes of children who are being home-schooled. There, we find out the benefits of finding ways to home-school and/or supplement your child's learning to include a full and true history of the United States and the world that is not white-washed. Additionally, children learn at their own pace, with their strengths highlighted, leaving many of them testing ahead of the grades they would be in had they stayed in public school. The documentary makes the case that in order for the black community to succeed, proper education needs to be instilled and the system itself has to be rebuilt.
