Synopsis

34 young activists journey across America and back on the Soulforce Equality Ride. The two-month bus tour visits conservative Christian and military colleges where it is against school policy to be Lesbian, Gay Bisexual or Transgendered. At some stops they're welcomed with open arms, at others they're arrested for trespassing or for simply attempting to open up a dialog. At every stop though, they're connecting with young people who've often never met an openly gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender person who is comfortable with who they are.
