'Unseen' highlights the crisis of missing Black girls

Black girls and women are disproportionately impacted by violence, trafficking, and systemic neglect. And that neglect leads to higher rates of disappearance when compared to white counterparts and far less urgency when they go missing. The loss of a Black girl doesn’t just affect a family. It ripples through entire communities, through classrooms, neighborhoods, and peer groups, leaving behind fear, grief, and anger that rarely make headlines. "Unseen" is a new production by Teen Hype that confronts this silence head-on.  It invites audiences into a necessary conversation about what young people—especially Black girls—are facing today, and what it means to be unseen in moments when visibility can save lives. Teen HYPE (https://teenhype.org/) is a Detroit-based organization dedicated to empowering young people through education, advocacy, and holistic creative expression. "Unseen" is directed by Teen Hype alum Mallory Childs, who is currently a sophomore at Spelman College in Atlanta. She and Teen HYPE co-founder Ambra Redrick join the show to talk about the project.
