Pbs: American Family Journey of Dreams

Curated by ACT

Using their drama series "American Family" as a kick-off point, PBS explores Latino family issues and what it means to be Latino. In addition to extensive information about the series itself, they have articles on mural art and East LA, while interactive pages help users learn about developing a family tree or healthy living. Teacher guides help teachers use the series in the classroom.
