Teaching Black Kids to Advocate for Themselves

Michelle Gillie Amor is a screenwriter in Los Angeles. Her son earned an A in his AP World History class, but the teacher gave him a B. Michelle told her son to challenge the grade. When that got nowhere, she and her husband stepped in - exposing a teacher who changed her mind because, as she told Michelle, "he was having too much fun."

Akiko Cooks and Carrie Kaufman talk with Michelle about "black boy joy" and how they are teaching their sons and daughters to advocate against systems.
