I’ve traveled the country twice now, all 50 states but Alaska, talking to kids on camera and the parents off camera during two presidential elections. Kids have a lot to say about what they know is their future. I met and interviewed over 400 kids between to 2000 (filmed in 1996) and 2008 versions of the show.
I’d love to do a 7UP style follow up with these amazing kids who made my final cut as adults once these troubled times hopefully, and I believe they will, subside.
Critically-acclaimed television show and web series,”Kids Talk Politics” had a run from 2000-2014. First as a national PBS special airing as the lead-in to the Bush-Gore 2000 presidential debates. Then as a hit web series for covering the 2008 election of America’s first Black president Barack Obama. The web series was then gathered into a documentary that was the #1 DVD for kids and politics on Amazon from 2009 through 2014.
