Summary: 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."
more compelling than i expected. an amazing job that places me right THERE. The producer did an amazing job. I feel humbled by his effort and by the work of my colleagues. The energy, the urgency, is undeniable and tangible. An exceptional piece, even if I am a bit biased.

Thoughtful, polished, and thoroughly engaging about an important global issue. Successfully uses music almost as a character. The lack of voice-overs or narration is an impressive feat when you consider the scope of the story that still manages to be conveyed through the subjects' voices. This would be a fresh and creative piece to hear broadcast on public radio.
This is a very interesting take on an all-too real problem. The producer here does a nice job of showing just how an organization within a community can mobilize to take power, even from a marginalized place. Regarding this piece, it has a consistent flow, aided by excellent musical accompaniment. Listeners are treated to a piece showing also the vitality that exists in a fight against a deadly enemy. Very well done.
At the same time a bucket of cold water on conventional audio documentary and an inspiring homage to the kitchen sisters. This piece is raw, yet complex and informative; edgy, yet intimate and thoughtful. Leaving narration outside the door, it lets its subjects drive the story. Beautiful and effective use of music and ambiance sound add texture and mood to the piece. Can't wait to hear more from this producer.
