Don’t miss the world television premiere of “I Learn America” this Sunday! “I Learn America” is a powerful film that will take you into the lives of four immigrant teens, and asks the question, “What can a welcoming school community look like?”
Immigrant students lives can be confusing, lonely, and discouraging, but with courage, love, and humor, they persevere. In many ways, they are teenagers forging a complex new identity as ordinary people coming of age and becoming Americans in extraordinary circumstances.

Nebraska Is Home was able to show a special screening with audiences in Nebraska before this public viewing, and students and adults found it compelling and moving. One educator said the candid manner in which the students in the film helped her to know more about what students experience beyond the classroom.
