BLACK LIVES MATTER! Information on how to stay informed and help those who are in the fight for justice!

The recent killings of  Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd, and Breonna Taylor reminded the world that we need immediate change and real reforms to a justice system built on racism.  As an artist, I've struggled over the last two weeks with being creative or promoting any of my successes.  I'm hurting along with my community and fearing the safety of my love ones.   I don't know when I will regain my peace, but what gives me hope during these unprecedented  and traumatic times is the attention and outrage these injustices are receiving around the globe.  Many friends and allies want to know how to help.   Here are a few ways: Make a donation to Bail Out Fund Organizations Atlanta Boston Chicago Columbus Houston Los Angeles Las Vegas Louisville Milwaukee Philadelphia Phoenix Portland Toronto Seattle National Support organizations who are organizing and leading social justice reforms: COLOR OF CHANGE ACLU NAACP BLACK LIVES MATTER JUSTICE FOR BREONNA RUN WITH MAUD COVID-19 PROTEST RE

We got so many rejections the first round of submissions, with only making the official selection of one film festival and finalist for another.  Although it wasn't what I expected, I was grateful.  It saved my self esteem. I knew I had a good quality film and I thought that most film festivals would recognize that too. After getting some honest feedback at a test screening with fellow film directors from Alliance of Women Directors, I realized that I needed to be more strategic with my submissions.  I shifted my focus from applying to the commercial festivals with A list attachments to niche festivals located in places where I could build an audience for the feature version of my film, which I've already written.
