Over a century of cinema has shaped how we see the world, but it has also shaped how we see human trafficking. Films often focus on the most sensational aspects—sex trafficking, forced captivity, and dramatic rescues—leaving out the everyday horrors of labor trafficking, domestic servitude, and psychological abuse. As TIFF celebrates the art of filmmaking, let’s not forget the stories that are often left out of the frame. Trafficking isn’t just what you see on the big screen; it’s happening in our communities, often in ways that movies fail to portray. Want to stay informed and help us spread awareness? Subscribe to our newsletter for more insights, survivor stories, and ways you can make a difference in the fight against human trafficking. https://lnkd.in/esEVVUNt #TIFF2024 #EndTrafficking #FilmIndustry #Awareness #Support #Survivors

Set in Harlem in the 1970s, the film tells the love story of two young people whose lives are impacted by racial injustice. What role does the carceral state play in this narrative of love and family?

I use fiction to tell the truth | Influencer | Writer & Film Director | Disability Representation Consultant
I believe this film has the potential to have as big of an impact as CODA. That's a big statement. I truly believe this has Oscar potential, and potential to make a large cultural impact. In order for it to happen we need the support of the disability community. Find out more about the film, Miles' story, and the impact this film has already had: https://lnkd.in/gE6EXFiz

My first review for my blog “Feminism, Film & Fearmongering” is out now! In this blog, I review Zack Snyder’s ‘Rebel Moon’ through a feminist lens, discussing the ways Snyder upholds white supremacy in a film about oppressive governments, and how he perpetuates misogynistic values.

Williston's Tramp: In this hypothetical situation, a wealthy man tells a tramp (a homeless person) that if the tramp walks around the corner to a clothing store, the wealthy man will buy him a new coat. The tramp walks around the corner to the store but when he arrives, the wealthy man refuses to buy the coat. The scenario helps to explain the difference between a conditional gift and a contract.

It’s been great to have a break from social media and LinkedIn, but I am proud to announce I am featured in an exciting new documentary created by the Outback Mind Foundation. On 19 April 2024 the documentary ‘Boiling Point’ will be released. This documentary has been created to help regional communities work towards reducing domestic and family violence and speaks to men who are using violence in their relationships. Documentaries serve as powerful educational tools, offering audiences a window into the often-hidden realities of domestic violence. Quite uniquely, this documentary not only incorporates perspectives of survivors and experts, it also speaks to men who have used violence in their relationships. Through compelling storytelling and firsthand accounts, they shed light on the complexities of abuse, its far-reaching effects, and how we can start to address violence in our communities. Through watching and engaging with such films, we not only deepen our understanding but also cultivate empathy and solidarity with those affected. If you are in the Gladstone area, you can purchase tickets to the premiere at Gladstone Cinema on 19 April 2024 where there will also be a Q and A panel. Purchase tickets via the link below. Stay tuned for updates on our film and join us in this important conversation. https://lnkd.in/gHZp-cAD #domesticviolenceducation #EndDomesticViolence #Documentary #EducationForChange
