PBS AMERICAN PORTRAIT, a national storytelling project aligned with PBS's 50th anniversary celebration, invites America to participate in a national conversation about what it really means to be an American today. A digital first initiative produced by RadicalMedia, AMERICAN PORTRAIT begins as a platform for people to share photos, videos, and text submissions and capture the state and spirit of our nation. As PBS's most ambitious initiative to date, the project is envisioned to encompass publishing, short form content, classroom engagement, a web miniseries, public art installations, live events, and in January 2021, a nationally televised documentary series on PBS stations.
