So during this time of massive and unexpected societal change, many people are facing a personal reinvention. This episode explores how very different people have remade themselves and gone in a totally new direction. We hear how ex-Amazon warehouse worker Chris Smalls took a stand and set off in a new direction to protect others, and how YouTuber Anthony Padilla found new meaning in his work after leaving behind his hugely successful comedy channel Smosh. Self-Evident: A PBS American Portrait Miniseries seeks to answer the question: what does it really mean to be an American today? Join our hosts — Dr. Ali Mattu, a licensed therapist and clinical psychologist and YouTuber behind “The Psych Show,” as well as Danielle Bainbridge, Ph.D., historian and the writer/creator of PBS’s “The Origin of Everything” — as they explore the lives of real Americans, living during this unprecedented moment in time. #AmericanPortraitPBS #Reinvention #AmericanLives Self-Evident is a part of PBS Digital Studios.
