What is poverty?

Why are people poor?

What would you give up to get rid of poverty?

What class do you think you are?

-- Questions asked by Zoe Greenberg in Enough

 

 

About Enough

Created as filmmaker Zoe Greenberg's bat mitzvah project, Enough takes on the taboo subjects of wealth, poverty and class. This professional-quality short film is a great conversation starter for audiences of all ages to explore class and classism in the United States.

In April of 2007, Zoe learned that she had won the Princeton Prize in Race Relations for 2007 in Philadelphia, a contest that seeks to recognize, support, and encourage the young people of our country who have demonstrated a commitment to advancing the cause of relations among the races.

In March of 2008, Zoe won the New Filmmakers Award for "Excellence in the World of Film" at the 2008 Philadelphia Jewish Film festival. She was the youngest of five recipients.

In 11 minutes, Zoe Greenberg opens a window into our society’s relationship with class. Through interviews with class- and race-diverse young people throughout Philadelphia she reveals what we are (and aren’t) saying about class – and why it matters.”

Recognizing the shortage of resources to broach the topics of class and economic disparity, Class Action developed the Enough Curriculum as a tool for educators to stimulate dialogue and learning. The Enough curriculum contains information and activities to further explore the issues of class, race and inequality for middle and high school students.

Enough is currently showing at Class Action house parties. If you are interested in hosting or attending a house party, please contact Sarah Reid at 413-585-9709, ext. 201.
