A Portrait of the American Dream: A film by Ralph Lauren 

This film is tremendous! The ending is especially significant. Robert Franklin asking; “where are your 90”.👍🏾👏🏾

Thank you for sharing this documentary. As an African I delight to see and know how my brothers and sisters are changing lives and living a legacy. Well Read Well Spoken Well Travelled Well Dressed Well Balance

best collaboration i've ever seen

Incredible film. My wife is a graduate of Spelman and her brother graduated from Morehouse. I myself graduated from an HBCU as well.

As a graduate of Morehouse, I am enormously proud that I can share this inspiring documentary with my family and friends. Great work!

Thank you. I found this video extremely moving, inspiring, motivating. Much love and respect.

Wonderful!!! Beautifully done!! HBCU4LIFE

What a wonderful collection and documentary

What a beautiful film. I enjoyed this a great deal!

I am a fashion designer, I am a black female designer as well. Although I did not attend an HBCU, I understand the significance and empowerment of this. As that is why I partially became a designer. Von Alexandria

Continue these customs please, thank you

Thank you! This is an amazing and uplifting film!👍🏾👍🏾💯

Beautiful and inspiring!

This documentary is really beautiful. I learned a lot and the clothes are lovely too. 😊 (My inner librarian is freaking out at everyone holding that nearly 100-year-old yearbook tho!)

Great show each hbcu has a great history

This documentary was inspiring, insightful, and beautifully made. As an HBCU grad, this makes me extremely proud of my amazing fellow HBCU graduates and of my own journey. The Talented 10th discussion was mind provoking and something I will continue to carry with me. The statement “who are the 90th you are called to serve” was the perfect way to end. It’s a call to action for us all. Challenge accepted. 🙏🏾

Ralph Lauren's define the word. Fashion house and classic American..that Man rivals Milan.The documentary Him and his team presented made Me curious about Morehouse/ Spelman University. Alumni suggestion... You all should have Spike Lee make a documentary on Henry Morehouse Hope/Spelman University.. I think I'd be historical

The question I have now is, will there now be a Ralph Lauren scholarship for HBCU's, or have we once again sold our people's history for the cost of integrating into a clothing brand . Let me say this, I applaud RL for shining the light on HBCU's and their history, but how are you helping them now move toward a better future. Don't only fill the need to dress black bodies without the importance of "addressing" the black minds. Make the RL in the brand mean: R esearch & L earn

Nice

This is beautiful.

Not buying RL HBCUwear. This collection is a copy from a black owned company. The Black Ivy League. SMH we as a people will still fall for any thing

As much as I want to celebrate this film, I struggle. What began as a celebration of legacy, history and resilience through education, became a commodified fashion advertisement for a white billionaire's philanthropy. Naturally, I resist the politics of respectability as a debunked illusion of perception based upon the white gaze, but I enjoyed seeing the experience of the collective, disciplined and astute in regard to academic rigor and focus within these institutions. However, the more the film progressed, the more commercial the images became, the more references to Ralph Lauren were made, and the more the attention was placed upon the fashion aesthetic opposed to the educational culture and context that has made these institutions successful. Unequivocally, I loved the history but overall, the film feels like a whitewashed compromise and a tool to garner fashion sales.

Fun fact spelman is named after a white women
