Childhood Made in USA: Kids Behind Bars and Zero Tolerance

This documentary examines how the United States treats its children in the justice system, from kids held behind bars to zero-tolerance discipline in schools. It notes that America stands almost alone in not signing the international convention on children's rights, and follows young lives caught in a punitive system. The film weighs punishment against childhood itself. Hard-hitting and revealing, it confronts an uncomfortable side of American society. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
