Join us on April 24th at 12pm Pacific / 3pm Eastern as three powerhouse filmmakers, Cheryl Dunye, Pratibha Parmar, and Madeleine Lim reflect on the past 25 years of the landscape for queer women of color in filmmaking, mapping what has or has not changed as well as where the needle might have shifted. They will also touch upon a vision of the next 25 years, looking beyond representation and inclusion to what just and compelling filmmaking can be in order to create change. Asking what we want our legacies as queer women of color filmmakers to be in this world, this panel series promises to spark thought, fire new questions, and incite joy.
