The description on the videos YouTube video makes the following statement:  “The new video for the title track from Margo Price’s acclaimed album, ‘All American Made’ (Third Man Records). Shot against the background of varying, everyday American landscapes, the video features no actors, just real life men and women engaged in the struggles and successes of the everyday – a snapshot of America that finds common ground in our shared stories.

Kimberly Stuckwisch and Carlos Lopez Estrada, co-founders of the production company Little Ugly, shot the video in eight cities across five states in nine days, highlighting individuals from all across these communities: Leona Tate, one of the first children to integrate into white schools in New Orleans, who now heads her own foundation in support of inner-city youths. Sherrell Street, an Indiana farmer dealing with the recent loss of his wife. The Immigrant & Refugee Rights Coalition from Price’s adopted hometown of Nashville, Tennessee.”

Powerful visuals that accompany a powerful message.
