“51st STATE” is a short film that explores the emerging national issue of D.C. statehood from the personal perspective of one of its youngest Gen Z leaders - set against the overlooked cultural backdrop of our capital city and a deep yet virtually unknown crack in our democracy.
With CAMEOS from Eleanor Holmes Norton, Rep. Jamie Raskin, historian G. Derek Musgrove, Sen. Raphael Warnock and more!
