On today’s podcast episode, we get into one of our very own films, Being Black in America.

This is the first time we’re doing this on the podcast – the first of many episodes where we interview folks involved in our productions. Being Black in America is our latest short documentary film where we show an array of different thoughts and attitudes behind Blackness and what it means to everyone on a personal level by asking one central question, What does being Black in America mean to you? It’s a question that’s asked in so many ways on screen indirectly and never seen as a conversation amongst ourselves but directly at the camera to a general audience. This film, however, turns that on its head and makes the audience a bystander, not a participant.

Our guests today are Ann Marie St. Rose, Evelyn Holmes, and Taurus Savant! Listen to them talk about their experiences filming and dive deeper into thoughts shared in the film and expanding a little bit further into what they didn't get to talk about on screen.

You can read more information about this film and how to host a screening on our website at ourvoicesproject.com/black-in-america. We’d love to bring our film to you along with our storytellers to get to know them as well as dive deeper into topics discussed in the film and beyond.
