In Search of Common Ground (A City Lights Success Story) is a documentary of voices, experiences, and images of African-American life in the South and in Washington. The film documents the Great Migration and reveals the common origins of many residents of northern and mid-Atlantic urban centers like Washington, DC through the recollections of senior citizens at the Potomac Gardens senior public housing community.
Awarded the Schwartz Prize for outstanding humanities projects from the Federation of State Humanities Councils, In Search of Common Ground records the history of the senior residents of Potomac Gardens, a public housing project located near the U.S. Capitol.
