Piece Description

SisterLove: Keeping it Real, Globally! is a creative, non-traditional audio documentary that looks at the local and global activism of a small group of dedicated Atlanta based women and their life's work - "to eradicate the impacts of HIV and AIDS and other sexual, reproductive health challenges on women and their families." The project seeks to answer the question: How do localized organizations, in the face of globalization and neo-liberalism, move beyond insular and service model structures to effectively integrate regional and global organizing? The voices of women and people of color are often placed second in the "globalization" debate -- especially when it comes to finding alternative realities (aka solutions). This project seeks to give an example of progressive social organizing but more importantly to challenge who it is we look to for answers.
