Pipeline by Dominique Morisseau
Directed by Nataki Garrett
After two incidents at his public school which culminated in two suspensions, Nya, a public-school teacher, takes her son, Omari, out of the inner-city public school and enrolls him at Fernbrook, a private school far from home. When a third behavioral event happens there, expulsion and possible criminal charges might be next, Nya must confront the decisions and sacrifices she's made to ensure Omari's success. Written by MacArthur Fellowship recipient (The Genius Award) Dominique Morisseau, herself a former Detroit schoolteacher, Pipeline puts a magnifying glass on the complexities and nuances of Black parenting in the inner-city to the forefront.
