Against All Odds: The Fight for a Black Middle ClassIn this film, which premiered on PBS in March 2017, journal-ist Bob Herbert asks the question: “Have black Americans had a fair shot at the American dream?”

This revealing and sometimes shocking documentary connects the dots of American history to reveal how the traditional route up the economic ladder -- by attaining a job that pays a living wage and then buying a house — is a financial ascent that has been systematically denied to black families.

Yet through it all, Herbert reports, black Americans have shown resilience in the face of injustice and a determina-tion to get their fair share of the American dream. Herbert says, “There are no barriers that can’t be overcome. When dreams remain unrealized, it simply means the fight goes on.”
