Diversity has become a part of the American story. The vast majority of the population originates from other countries and areas of the globe. The existence of a diverse population is something Americans talk about, are more aware of it than most nations, and constantly struggle over issues of fairness, justice and equal access to all people.

American Road Show

American Road Show will commemorate and explore the life of Martin Luther King, Jr., through the film How Martin Luther King, Jr., Changed the World. This hour long film will explore how Martin Luther King, Jr., became who he is, what he struggled against and how he succeeded in pushing civil rights to the forefront of American life through mobilizing the African American community.
