Ghetto America

Ghetto America is a cross-country examination of socioeconomic factors that affect underprivileged Americans across racial and cultural lines. Seen though the lens of journalist/filmmaker Ray Williams, this documentary project also explores personal, oftentimes hidden obstacles that make members of certain segments of American society more likely to live non-productive lives. Through our website and documentaries, it is our goal to examine the causes of these problems, challenge conventional notions about the people experiencing them and to look for solutions that won't necessarily come from lawmakers or university professors but from the very people living with these problems or those working to resolve them.
