Youth Programs

Our Street Team programs bring middle school youth of different races together with Elders for recorded and published dialogue. This allows cross-cultural and cross-generational bonding for a valuable life experience of intersectionality, it's called If Not Now When. We also challenge youth to research our content (episodes, locations or people) to create (write) provocative questions. They verbalize and we publish their question on camera so they interact with and teach the world, its called the HD Challenge.
