Live Chat with Shelby Knox and the Filmmakers

Posted on April 19, 2011
The Education of Shelby Knox is the story of a self-described "good Southern Baptist girl" who becomes an unlikely advocate for comprehensive sex ed. The ITVS-funded doc, which aired on P.OV. back in 2005, is being revisited today through a live chat on P.O.V.’s website. Our friends from the series have allowed us to host the discussion on BTB. The chat will start at 1PM ET and include Shelby Knox, along with filmmakers Marion Lipschutz and Rose Rosenblatt. Enjoy!
