This is the first of a two-part episode that takes a closer look at the inner workings of the Teen Appeal and its profound impact on the community.

Her tireless efforts provided high school students with a platform to not only learn journalism skills but also glimpse into college life, with the hope of inspiring hundreds of Memphis students to pursue university degrees after high school.

S1E3 The Background, Part 2

In this thought-provoking episode, Jackson and Dr. Elinor Grusin further explore the profound impact of the Teen Appeal on the students of Memphis City Schools and the local journalism scene. Historically, news organizations have been predominantly homogenous, with news staff and management consisting mostly of white men. One of the main objectives of the Teen Appeal was to address this imbalance by exposing students who would not typically be introduced to journalism, to the field. Incredibly, 95 percent of the students working with the Teen Appeal were African American, bringing fresh perspectives, diverse stories and new faces to the newsroom. Through the Teen Appeal, Grusin, the TA staff and students actively worked toward creating a more inclusive and diverse media landscape that better reflected the community they served.
