A Fence Away From Social Change
Funded Nov 16, 2016
Thank you so much for donating to this project. My students are so excited to read and perform this play. They have no idea of the social impact they will bring to those in their community. Thank you for being you and thank you for undetstanding that our youth has every right to be empowered!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Gonzalez

With a class set of August Wilsons award winning play, my students will be able to vicariously experience, empathize, and connect to many social justice issues that still affect people today. Students will be able to connect to the character, situations and emotions and help them create their own voice and opinions regarding topics such as racism, feminism, classism and parenting. For students who are often disengaged from school because of lack of interest and connection with the text, reading this play will allow them to build passion for literature and the creative arts. As a final project, students will be able to preform this play for the school community to bring to light the issue they have learned but also share the work of contemporary authors of color like August Wilson.
