“I am always on the hunt for quality enrichment outside the classroom which will push my students to think outside their own little bubbles.I highly recommend THE DEFAMATION EXPERIENCE for its thoughtful treatment of the varied aspects of racism.”
“Issues of power and privilege muddy the waters as the audience watches it all unfold, deliberates on the different pieces of the legal puzzle and eventually renders a verdict. A month later, the impact and conversation still linger.
“As a school in the early stages of engaging in critical conversations about diversity and justice, bringing THE DEFAMATION EXPERIENCE to our campus could not have been more perfectly timed. Framing these important issues in context of a court case captivated the students and faculty in the audience, and the deliberation and discussion at the end underscored the truth that we are ALL responsible for engaging in discussions on the issues of our time. People in the community continue to refer back to the experience in the weeks that have followed. We are so grateful that we could make this event happen, and recommend it highly!”
“Bringing THE DEFAMATION EXPERIENCE to our school was a great way to engage our students in conversations about how race, gender and class impact our perspectives and decisions. Through the discussion portion, students had the opportunity to share their way of thinking and acknowledge their own bias. It was a powerful way to start the conversation on these topics and has allowed us to continue this dialogue among our school community.”
“The play’s structure and your ability to facilitate, created an environment in which students felt impelled to honestly share their thoughts with the community.”
