SHORT SYNOPSIS "THIS IS A RECLAIMING. A RECKONING. A TRAVEL THROUGH THE MOTIONS OF HEALING, UNDERSTANDING, ADJUSTING. THIS IS A SAFE SPACE. A RETELLING. AN ATTEMPT TO RESHAPE THE WAY THAT HISTORY HAS BEEN FRAMED - THE INFORMATION THAT’S BEEN MADE AVAILABLE TO US.

HERE, WE FOLLOW OUR PROTAGONISTS IN REAL TIME, ACCOMPANIED BY FLASHBACKS AND A VOICEOVER THAT DETAILS THE FACT THAT HISTORICALLY, BLACK PEOPLE HAVE BEEN STRIPPED OF HUMANITY IN AMERICA, AND WERE AT ONE POINT EVEN CONSTITUTIONALLY CONSIDERED AS 3/5 OF A HUMAN BEING.

OUR GOAL IS TO TOUCH UPON AND ACKNOWLEDGE THE TRUTH OF WHAT’S OCCURRED, WHILE SETTING OUR INTENTION BEHIND FORWARD PROGRESSION, EVOLUTION."
