Join Teach For America Twin Cities for an in-person documentary screening followed by a discussion and Q&A from the co-founder of Humanize My Hoodie, Jason Sole. Jason is a past president of the Minneapolis NAACP and currently an adjunct professor at Hamline University. This event is open to anyone in our network interested in engaging in conversations to stand against the discrimination of marginalized communities and to debunk the stereotype for hoodies being associated with Black criminality. The Humanize My Hoodie Movement originated from a demand to end the killing of Black and Indigenous People across the world. Hoodies have been used to amplify the myth of Black criminality. Their mission is to debunk that stereotype by designing revolutionary social justice campaigns for Black and Indigenous People of Color to be HUMANIZED, not criminalized.
