About me: Driven to action by the murder of a turbaned man in her community, a college student drives across America in the aftermath of 9/11 to discover stories that did not make the evening news. From the still-shocked streets of Ground Zero to the desert towns of the American West, Valarie Kaur's inspiring journey uncovers remarkable stories of hate violence, fear, and unspeakable loss – until she finds the heart of America halfway around the world in the words of widow. Five years in the making, Divided We Fall: Americans in the Aftermath deftly explores race, religion, and what it means to be American in times of national crisis.
The opening sequence of Divided We Fall (first 7 minutes of the film):
Take Out is a day-in-the-life of Ming Ding (Charles Jang), an undocumented Chinese immigrant working as a deliveryman for a Chinese take-out shop in New York City.

“A Dream in Doubt” is an immigrant story in a world in which patriotism has morphed into murder. When Rana Singh Sodhi’s brother is killed in America’s first post-9/11 revenge murder, he begins a journey to reclaim his American dream and fight the hate that continues to threaten his community. This intimate, hour-long documentary of one man’s odyssey from persecution in India to embracing America as his homeland proves that courage and hope have the power to overcome hate.

I saw your movie at Netflix. It was really interesting how 9/11 pushed so many people's personal pain to the surface. We are a very troubled nation! I hope there will be a time when you can trace the roots of your journey and people will be healed and filled with hope.
