Lewis reminded us that allies are critical in the movement "...because we can't do it. People of color can't do it. They'll kill us. They relish in the opportunity. So when we have people like you who are doing it at a grassroots level like this, it really does make a difference."

Shawn was tired of talking and wanted to DO something. I wanted to be a part of something and, Dan's passion.

When you talk to Dan, you know, he just makes you feel like, he’s an ally, he’s on our side and we know we need that to get things happening."

Sule picked up there and enlightened us of the INTENT behind burying history.

"Those who bury history INTEND to repeat it. And that's why we're on board with you: 'cause you're making sure that doesn't happen."

At our launch party, people spoke from the heart about history, allyship, and showing up.

Liz is "mad as hell about what's going on in our country.

Black people still earn less than white people because the systems weren't dismantled.

Those who can't remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

This is an opportunity for folks who are feeling helpless, horrified, and hobbled to speak through a larger platform than their Zuckbook page.

Think of it this way: if you’re too busy to make your own documentary film— you can be a part of ours.

What You're Seeing Isn't New

We exist to set the historic record straight. If people don't understand yesterday, they won't understand today.

This Ida B. Wells dramatization features Effie Mwando, reading an editorial while Dr. Manisha Sinha adds cultural context and details.

We just recorded an interview with Brown's most prolific historian and Biographer, Dr. Lou DeCaro about a week ago. He began the interview with this point: "Before I talk about who John Brown was, I want to say who he wasn't..."

It was a great day.

Flashback to our road trip to Arlington, VA to interview Brigadier General Enoch Woodhouse II, JD.

I call this film short "Kareem vs. Subaru."

WELCOME HOME, Ysanne!

We, the Torrington Browniac battalion, were thrilled to witness Ysanne and Lotus Blues at the Torrington Historical Society.

Ysanne contributed mightily to our first film, "His Truth Is Marching On," and it wouldn't have been nearly as good without her.

We ♥️ her!

We will be launching a crowdfunding campaign November 7 and we'd like your help choosing what to fund.

Because crowdfunding gives people outside the production team a voice, we want to know what parts you'd like to be a part of.
