American Roots from Agency New Jersey
November 20, 2009, Red Bank, NJ—New Jersey-based media organizations, Agency New Jersey and Given The Power have launched "American Roots," a short film that examines the subject of immigration by focusing on immigrants who are established and flourish in New Jersey.

The film, which was filmed by Marc Steiner of Agency New Jersey and edited by Steve Rogers of Given The Power, includes interviews with first and second generation Americans and current New Jersey residents. The families in the film had either relocated from another part of the United States or came directly to New Jersey after immigrating from another country. In the film the subjects describe their familes journey to the United States, the successes they’ve enjoyed, and their views on immigration today.
