For Ahkeem
For Ahkeem America ReFramed
Expelled from high school, Daje Shelton is only 17 years old when she is sentenced by a judge - not to prison, but to the Innovative Concept Academy. It offers Daje one last chance to earn a high school diploma. FOR AHKEEM is an unvarnished exploration of a complex web of juvenile justice, education, poverty and race in America today.
