It's Not Okay: Speaking Out Against Youth Violence -3-Year Streaming

In this provocative program, high school students offer a teen perspective on violence and its day-to-day impact at school, at home, and in the community. Opposed to the violence of which they have been a part, these young men and women speak their minds on topics including the causes of violent behavior, the effects of dysfunctional families, bullying and mob mentality, and the fear of being killed going to and from school. School administrators, mental health professionals, and other adults second the teens' pleas for greater parental support, an end to media stereotypes, and overall social change. Some language may be objectionable. (40 minutes) Length 40 min. © Copyright 2000
