| Summary |
Following 13 immigrant and non-immigrant teenage girls, Maine girls explores the important role that young people play in bridging cultural divides. In Maine - the whitest state in America - immigrant students are entering public schools in record numbers. But as the population increases, so are the number of hate crimes. Over the course of 8 weeks, a diverse group of girls at South Portland High School learn what it takes - and what it means - to make genuine friendships with people who don't look or live the same way that they do. Leading by example, these teenage girls pave the way for greater empathy at their school and in doing so, encourage other girls to step up and do the same in their own communities throughout the United States |
