The America's are the most diverse of all the continents, though this can lead to difficulties in shaping our own identities. From Cuban Americans to French Canadians, they all have their own stories.
While the Americas are home to the largest economies, millions are impoverished. From children who live in the sewers in Bogata to thousands moving to Mexico City, hoping for better life.
Democracy in the Americas is on the rise. Chile is struggling becoming a Democracy following the fall of a dictatorship. Even in the United States we see the fight against voter apathy.
The first Americans are in-danger of being wiped out. From the systematic attempt to assimilate the first peoples of Guatemala to how drought and depopulation threaten those with roots to the Incas.
The face of Religion is ever changing. In Huston, Rev. Young has built a million dollar Church complex. In Venezuela and Guatemala the masses are unsure what their religious futures are.
Today the Americas are on the verge of total unity. From Brazilians working with tourists to preserve the Amazon, to residents in small towns in Montana using the internet to connect to the world.
