Jenny, Jasmine, Felipe, and Johnathan explore what it means to be a first-generation college student in the one-hour documentary, Why Not Us?
The road-trippers travel throughout the United States chatting with diverse leaders, many of whom were also the first in their families to receive a college degree. These insightful conversations, shared experiences, and life lessons learned make up the First-Gen Roadtrip.
