Heist: Who Stole the American Dream? poster
7.7

Heist: Who Stole the American Dream? reveals how American corporations orchestrated the dismantling of middle-class prosperity through rampant deregulation, the outsourcing of jobs, and tax policies favoring businesses and the wealthy. The collapse of the U.S. economy is the result of conscious choices made over thirty five years by a small group: leaders of corporations and their elected allies, and the biggest lobbying interest in Washington, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. To these individuals, the collapse is not a catastrophe, but rather the planned outcome of their long, patient work. For the rest of the country, it is merely the biggest heist in American history.

Is Your Story Making You Sick? poster

Humans are story-telling creatures. By thinking, we all unconsciously "author" a self-story in our heads. Most often, the characters and plot of our story is framed by negative experiences from childhood. These painful "stories" then determine our emotions, leading to unhealthy stress, and changes in body chemistry. This is how a person's self-story can turn into a stress-related illness.

When filmmaker and investigative journalist Frances Causey, a daughter of the South, set out to explore the continuing racial divisions in the US, what she discovered was that the politics of slavery didn't end with the Civil War. In an astonishingly candid look at the United States' original sin, The Long Shadow traces slavery's history from America's founding up through its insidious ties to racism today.

Final Fight poster
NR

The suicide epidemic of our veterans is much worse than is commonly known. Suicide numbers from combat veterans and survivors of Military Sexual Trauma are 4.5x higher than the total number of service members tragically lost in battle during the entire Global War on Terror. Final Fight profiles a diverse set of veterans and their responses to living with combat trauma and military sexual trauma. We interview leading experts in the field of PTS and brain science within the scope of veterans mental health-seeking to find ways for our veterans to coexist with their traumas and lead the lives they so wholeheartedly deserve. Many of the veterans we interviewed are more comfortable on the front lines of battle than feeling the pressures of a "normal" life-making coming home the Final Fight.
