We the People

The design and animation is gorgeous and creative. The music and poetry is exciting and moving. Each episode focuses on different aspects of the US government with modern context. Great for kids.

The people who don't like it are typically dogmatic right wingers who will hate on anything the Obamas have anything to do with. The content isn't partisan, but with anything about politics, extremists will be triggered. You know every fox cultist will turn it off as soon as they mention Hamilton was an immigrant.

The overall message is that part of responsible citizenship is being involved and understanding the system of law. They cover the basics and why it's important in an approachable, entertaining way.

I would consider myself a pretty strong conservative but I like to think I have an open mind. I did my best to watch this with open mind a put aside my intial bias.

That being said, this was way over politicized and it didn't have to be. The information was decent, especially for children, but it was so clearly written from a progressive prospective. The majority of the show was fine but there were obvious overtones to BLM and anti gun beliefs. These ideas weren't the main focus, thankfully but they didn't need to be there.

I gave this 3 stars because I HATE the idea of trying to influence children to believe one way or another which this is trying to do. Again, the vast majority of the information is fine, it's just the creators added political overtones that did not have to be there, hence the three stars.

This is on4e of the poorest interpretations of the founders documents ever!

This has the opinion of the gimme population all over it. This is not what it means in any way , shape, or form!

This easy to watch series of music videos focuses on individual empowerment, and citizenship. It is clearly corporate art, but still enjoyable when you overlook that. The animation and music is all good and pretty for it's genre, though that depends on personal taste. The "Immigration" song bops, but gets repetitive. I must note that the majestic and energetic "Bill of Rights" song, and the roaring "Three Branches of Government" song are both real bangers (although, there are many things to be said about the depiction of Supreme Court justices as ethereal beings). The visual storytelling of "The First Amendment" is understandable to anyone who's had their right to speak freely threatened.

For people who want their kids to understand how our government is supposed to work, this is a wonderful series. My children loved the artwork and music, and the songs were beautiful and uplifting. Clearly influenced by School House Rock, this is a delightful modern series the whole family can appreciate.
