The new PBS documentary "My Omaha" explores the contrasting worlds of North and West Omaha, highlighting the people, experiences and communities that shape them.

Leo Louis II, a community activist whose work has brought greater visibility to North Omaha's often-overlooked leaders, was approached by the film's director to be included in the film, but he initially declined.

"He said, ' Why?' Because white people come into my community, they film us, they go off, they exploit us, and they go make their little money," Louis said. "They get their credit for doing a film, and we still stuck in the same condition. If that's what you're gonna do, I'm not interested."

But after two years of showing up at North Omaha events and building relationships, Beaulieu earned Louis' willingness to sit down for an interview.
