"America to Me" by the award-winning documentary director Steve James chronicles the daily life of twelve students at Chicagoland's elite Oak Park and River Forest High School (OPRF), allowing its students, families, faculty, and administration to tell stories of the pressures and challenges teens face today in their own words.
Episode 1: The school year begins at OPRF for freshman Grant, sophomore Tiara, and juniors Charles, Terrence and Ke’Shawn. Controversy over a Black Lives Matter assembly still reverberates as the school confronts years of racial inequities.
