Workplace Change
How groups use our resources: Our mission throughout the long history of this project has always been to provide the opportunity to delve into the history behind modern equal rights movements and to explore the crossroads between them, fostering invaluable discussions on justice, identity, and equality. We have used our resources and the discussions they bring up for conveying the significance of these movements while also positioning them in today’s struggles, especially around issues of intersectionality. Through the films we encourage discussions that inspire members of the community to take the conversation beyond the film, working together towards the “there” in Are We There Yet?
We have proudly worked with companies small and large; Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion organizers; Employee Resource Group members; and many more.
Contact us to discuss how we can bring our work together to move towards the common goal of equity, inclusion, and justice.
What these organizers have to say about our work together:
“Our screening event of From Selma to Stonewall was really well received! Having a 35-minute documentary was perfect for a lunch and learn with employees, providing enough time to experience the documentary together, talk through the general themes, and explore personal impacts and stories that it touched. This is a format that we would love to repeat. It was quick, very well done and a great way to learn something new!”
“As an organizing tool the movie is extremely well crafted.”
“From Selma to Stonewall was extremely touching as the group navigated some of the tough back stories and it provoked a fascinating conversation in our office after the viewing—one that we don’t typically get to explore in a professional setting. The intersection between the Black Civil Rights and the LGBTQ Equality movements is not often discussed together and for us it triggered a refreshing conversation about steps we can/should be doing differently personally and in our careers. Too often movements are siloed off—and so is our thinking. This documentary shows the complexity, nuances and emotional history that need to be brought to light more if we are going to have the tools to better address where we are going as a society. Thank you for the opportunity to view the documentary.”
“The screening was helpful to our community by encouraging people to think about how all of our efforts for liberation are inextricably linked.”
“Participating in the screening and the subsequent panel discussion was a reminder that discrimination is discrimination and sometimes what we need is an event like this to draw those of us who might not otherwise have a venue to be in conversation with one another together. It is an incredibly important documentary especially in our current political and social reality.”
