A chronicle of the lives and economic struggles of two families in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, one Black and one white, across more than three decades, this "knockout documentary" (The New York Times) raises unsettling questions about the changing nature of the American economy.

"Two American Families: 1991-2024" documents the saga of two families, the Stanleys and the Neumanns, who have spent the past 34 years battling to keep from sliding into poverty, and who refuse to give up despite upheaval in the U.S. economy. When the team first began documenting the families’ lives in 1991, the Neumanns and Stanleys were both struggling to adapt to a new, global economy and the trend towards part-time, lower-wage work.

With profound intimacy, the documentary follows the stories of the Stanleys and the Neumanns across six presidential administrations and offers a powerful window into how they and their now-grown children have fared while trying to stay afloat in an economy that has presented challenge after challenge for them.

"There are so many people struggling the same way with the cost of everything and not getting enough on your paycheck to cover your monthly expenses," said Terry Neumann, who was a mom of young kids when the documentary's producers began filming with her and is now in her early 60s. "It's like we haven't come very far."

"I won't give up," said Jackie Stanley, who is working as a real estate agent while entering her 70s.

The producers and directors are Tom Casciato and Kathleen Hughes. The co-producer is Andrew Fredericks. The senior producers are Frank Koughan and Nina Chaudry. The writer is Kathleen Hughes.

Published on February 19, 2015, the discussion "Dissecting the Diversity Problem: How Can Leadership Make an Impact?" addressed the critical lack of representation in digital technology. Despite the ubiquity of tech, its creators—who increasingly influence policy—rarely reflect the populations most impacted. Women and people of color comprise less than 30% of STEM professionals, a figure that has declined since 1990, highlighting a systemic failure.

This vital conversation, under the theme "Technology for the People, by the People," featured insights from U.S. CTO Megan Smith, FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel, New America President Anne-Marie Slaughter, and Code for Progress Program Director Aliya Rahman. The panel also included Open Technology Institute's Georgia Bullen and was moderated by Alan Davidson.
