Race to Nowhere is a close up look at education and childhood in America. It asks the question, Are we preparing youth for healthy, productive lives?

We encourage young people to make a 30 second or less video describing their schedule or the impact on them of the pressures they feel. Our favorites will be included on our website and in the film.

Thanks for your courage in sharing how the issues in the film impact you and your sister. You are absolutely not alone, and your mom cares deeply about you and the issues we've raised. Think about joining us on Facebook and getting your friends to do so as well. The voices of young people need to be heard. Hope to meet you soon.

Thank u so much for making this documentary. I am 13 and have always had stress, but now I know I'm not alone. I also wanted to say that sister in elementary school has a system that tells them where they should be at their reading level. My sister is reading books that condemn here to self depression. Please take this comment and do something about it. P.S. I am Annie Roney's son, he one who might distribute the documentary Thank you for giving me some purpose!
