About this event


Join GBIV as we view "THE TEST" The film is a short documentary that follows the story of Eric Frimpong, a Ghanaian immigrant who works as a maintenance worker at a large retirement center in Virginia. After eight years, Eric dreams of bringing his wife and three children to the US. The final obstacle to their long-awaited reunion is passing the U.S. Citizenship test. Two senior residents, Jill and Carl Miller, journey alongside Eric to tutor him to pass the test that will define his future.

We will also have an opportunity to step into the shoes of a person going for US citizenship by taking a 20 question Civics Practice Test and engage in a discussion after the 15 min film.
