53 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 3 years ago - ★★★★★ - 76 ratings

After walking through a busy street in New York City, I realized I knew nothing about the people surrounding me. All the faces were those of strangers. Where were they from? How did they get here? Who were they? Out of this crowd an idea started. The goal on this platform is to make those faces familiar. That’s what “American Youth” is. It’s a deeper look into our society and its people, one discussion at a time.
