We the People documentary on PBS airs tonight

WTP National Champs 2023

Tonight is the first episode of the documentary series Citizen Nation, a four-episode documentary series from PBS and RetroReport following We The People students from all over the United States as they discuss the Constitution and crucial issues in American civic life. Maggie Walker’s students are featured heavily in all four episodes! The episodes also feature students and teachers from Glen Allen and Douglas Freeman high schools in Henrico, in addition to many other high schools from all over the nation.

The documentary is available on PBS (8 pm if you’d like to watch it live!), but also streaming on Amazon Prime and YouTube.
