Focus Areas

ABC Television Special: Our America Hidden Stories with Ava DuVernay

Our America: Hidden Stories with Ava DuVernay is a one-hour educational special that brings the themes of ORIGIN to a broader audience through thought-provoking conversations and storytelling. Produced in collaboration with ABC Television, the special features an insightful student roundtable led by Ava DuVernay, where young voices engage in critical discussions on caste systems, book banning and social hierarchies that shape belonging and exclusion. Airing across multiple ABC-owned stations and digital platforms, the special furthers ARRAY’s mission to use storytelling as a catalyst for education, awareness and action.
