"Race to Nowhere" - Issues in American Education

Vicki Abeles, a mother of three and former attorney on Wall Street, was inspired to make the documentary film "Race to Nowhere" after her 12-year-old daughter was treated for stresss-related illness.  Issues presented in the film include the pressure experienced by young students, cheating in school, students who are disengaged and stress-related illness and depression.  This is the only screening of the film in Wisconsin as part of a six-month campaign to show the film nationwide.
