POPPYN’s video report on foster care in Philly is making waves at DHS [generocity

 
When Josh Childs’ father saw POPPYN’s episode on the Black Lives Matter movement, he told Josh he wasn’t a kid anymore.

“He accepted me for my knowledge and didn’t make me be quiet,” said Childs, a junior at Science Leadership Academy who coproduced the episode.

POPPYN, or Presenting Our Perspective on Philly Youth News, is a program that gives Philadelphia high school students the chance to tell their side of the story on a topic of interest through visual media.

Thanks for sharing, Leslie.  I loved this video done by the kids, sharing their perspective on things.  And so great to see that it caught the attention of DHS and their voices are being heard.
