My Home Is Here

"If you've been to one small town, you've been to one small town." Oftentimes, the stories shared about America are born out of urban landscapes, but rural America can be just as vibrant as its metropolitan counterparts. Through narratives from communities striving to be seen, My Home Is Here explores the economic, environmental and social issues that affect rural ways of life across the nation. From the heartland of America to Native lands, from the unacknowledged to the underserved, who are the people facing critical challenges and changes while leading with pride in their homes?
