I honestly had no idea people still lived like that, it's sickening, especially in "America".I watched and I was speechless, at the end when they said that boy gave up on college I was really sad, he was really trying to make a life for himself. I am glad though that the Girl named Angel got her GED and I'm glad these people are trying at least...
It makes me really want to help, I'm glad I'm young and I can possibly help some of these people in the future. I hope this documentary really raises awareness and more people try and help! My cousin goes there every summer for 2 weeks with a volunteer organization to help out down there, it's good they are getting more helpThe guy who made a mobile dentist made me happier. Incest, drugs, hunger, etc are really bad problems up there but I hope to god that they can solve it. I cannot believe people live in such poverty it makes me so sad. Maybe now they will start getting the help they needed.
The guy in the coal mines made me really sad to, he was only 19 years old!! They might make a "good" salary but they die very young I'm sureThat show was pretty powerful, I'm sure it moved many people and I hope it is going to be the start of a change for Appalachia.
