Skip the Black Friday Frenzy – Watch "The Raising of America" Instead
Skipping the Black Friday frenzy? Or just looking for a worthwhile way to unwind from a jam-packed Thanksgiving? Look no further!
Gather your friends and family (or favorite afternoon snack) to watch The Raising of America, a documentary that explores the question: Why are so many children in America faring so poorly? What are the consequences for the nation’s future? How might we, as a nation, do better?
The film investigates these questions through different lenses: What does science tell us about the enduring importance of early life experiences on the brain and body? What it is like to be a parent today? And what policies and structures help or hinder the raising of healthy, happy and compassionate children?
The film is steaming online for FREE until November 30th.
After watching, make sure to take action for affordable early learning, paid family & medical leave, and equal pay!
