Review of Accelerating America

This film was about a school locally, in Providence, RI, called UCAP that assisted under-privileged kids being raised in a poor neighborhood. The film followed three students, Yazmine, America, and Jason, along with school principal Robert DeBlois. The film displayed how DeBlois interacted with his students and his attempts to pointing them in the right direction. He does all of this while being a quadriplegic, which is an amazing story itself. This film displays miracle stories as well as depressing stories. This is a documentary that really should gain popularity. This was one of my favorite films of the year. I give this a 4 out of 5.
