About the Film

Driven to action by the murder of a turbaned man in her community, a college student drives across America in the aftermath of 9/11 to discover stories that did not make the evening news. From the still-shocked streets of Ground Zero to the desert towns of the American West, Valarie Kaur's inspiring journey uncovers remarkable stories of hate violence, fear, and unspeakable loss – until she finds the heart of America halfway around the world in the words of widow. Five years in the making, Divided We Fall: Americans in the Aftermath deftly explores race, religion, and what it means to be American in times of national crisis.

 

Divided We Fall is now on national tour.  It has screened at more than 40 campuses and communities in North America since September and was recently featured on BBC and NPR.  The film has generated a groundswell of support, including official commendation by the State of California.   The film's inspiring story opens up a space for honest storytelling among our audiences, followed by deep dialogue about the community and country we live in and can envision.  Tune in to CNN on Tuesday, May 15, at 8pm Eastern time for Paula Zahn's interview with the filmmakers.
