Abstract | Freddie Gray's death tore Baltimore City apart; but a classroom of shaken teens at Mergenthaler High School found their power in the aftermath. Art teacher Sia Kyriakakos used the arts as a vehicle to help her students process the racial trauma that is part of their everyday lives--being young, black, and often unjustly targeted by the city's police. Through projects like lyric writing and painting Kehinde Wiley-inspired self-portraits, these students were finally "able to see themselves as powerful in a world that had rendered them powerless." (As Provided). |
