• Programming Spotlight: Fly at the New Victory Theater
  March 23, 2016
  Last week, students in the Lutheran group attended a performance of Fly at the New Victory Theater. The play dramatizes the story of the Tuskegee Airmen and cleverly includes a dance griot, a role filled by the extraordinary Omar Edwards. New Victory Teaching Artists Chad Beckim and Janet Onyenucheya, remarkable artists in their own right, visited the following day to debrief with the students, who turned out to be full of questions about stagecraft, military service, and world politics. Many thanks to Literacy for Incarcerated Teens for crucial funding that made this trip possible, and The New Victory Theater for providing us with access to this extremely worthwhile show.

• Programming Spotlight: Paul Griffin Visits Crossroads
  March 10, 2015
  Yesterday, author Paul Griffin visited two classes at Passages Academy – Crossroads. He spoke with students about his life and career, answered questions about his books (Ten Mile River, Orange Houses, Stay With Me, and Burning Blue), and worked with students on telling “the best story in the world” – their own. Each student received a gift copy of Ten Mile River, graciously provided by Literacy for Incarcerated Teens, which Paul personalized. Said one student, holding his book, “I need to read books; books keep me going.” We are indebted to Paul for writing the books that keep our students going. –Regan Schwartz
