An intimate journey into the literacy crisis impacting The Bronx. 1.5 Million explores the political and economic forces that have brought about this literacy crisis in The Bronx, specifically, District 7 which is located in the south Bronx. With a lack of school libraries, classroom libraries, books within the community, bookstores, robust marketing by the NYPL in The Bronx and decades of divestment to education, a literacy crisis has come to fruition in The Bronx. A story of resilience and perseverance. Bronx residents work to provide a solution to this crisis on their own and dispel the notion that your zip code determines your future.
