American Experience

Meet Ryan Price

Clip: Season 23 Episode 11 | 2m 59s

A profile of Ryan Price, one of the 40 student freedom riders participating in the 2011 ride. "There was an article recently that said I broke down stereotypes when I was elected president of my fraternity," says Ryan. "But to me... it was my 109 fraternity brothers who broke down stereotypes when they elected me, just because I'm me and it has nothing to do with my sexual orientation."
