Teen Immigrants: Five American Stories
The current ethnic climate in the United States has made the country less of a "melting pot"
Their experiences are real, their emotions sincere. In "Teen Immigrants: Five American Stories", you'll
get to know five young people seeking the "American Dream": Anton, from Russia; Luincys, from the
Dominican Republic;
As we spend time with these teens in their daily lives, they speak honestly and thoughtfully about
why they emigrated to the U.S., their native countries and cultures, their impressions of America,
the challenges of language, school, peers, and family...and their dreams and plans for a future in
their adopted country. "Teen Immigrants: Five American Stories" was funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The program is regularly re-broadcast on PBS affiliates across the country. Please check our schedule and station list for airtimes. [Great resources] [Get help 24/7]
