A new generation of community leaders wrestle with what America's founding ideals demand of us all.
Across divides, Condoleezza Rice and David Kenned bring young adults together. Among them, a Chicagoan confronts industrial pollution in her immigrant neighborhood, a descendant of Holocaust survivors teaches teens to debate the freedoms the Constitution should protect, a Kenaitze fisherman defends the autonomy of Alaska’s Tribes. These stories weigh what our foundational ideals demand of us now.

Where to Watch American Creed: Citizen Power
American Creed: Citizen Power is available to stream on pbs.org and the PBS app.
- Democracy is not a spectator sport.
As Americans, all power comes from the citizen.
- Those squiggly cursive letters, "We the people," that's bold.
- Freedom is a powerful statement because you are free to fight for what you believe in.
- So long as the younger generation can find something that they in their own personal lives can rally behind, then that will not only make them better, it'll make their communities better.
(people applauding) (fireworks whistling) - Wow!
