Past Run
American Promise
A documentary 13 years in the making, American Promise provides a rare look into the lives of two middle class black families as they navigate the ups and downs of parenting and educating their sons. Our goal is to empower boys, their parents and educators and help close the black male achievement gap.
“[You'll] feel the pleasure of these kids' triumphs, the pain of their tragedies or the pressures of ambition, affecting parents as much as students.”
