A transformative documentary about the impacts of redlining and racial covenants on communities of color in Minnesota. From an asset lense, it details how some of the discriminatory and divisive laws invited communities of color to create spiritual and intellectual institutions for them, by them. This documentary is a solid representation of how knowing your history can inspire nationwide change, and invite our new generations to disrupt, dismantle, and begin anew. https://lnkd.in/gHvSvNHp

In the words of Jude Bellingham….A Black woman is a hero!! Having a black woman as a positive role model is essential because it addresses the lack of representation and diversity in mainstream media and society. When children, especially those from marginalized communities, see someone who looks like them achieving success and breaking barriers, it instills a sense of possibility and hope. Representation matters because it shapes our perceptions of what is possible and acceptable. When black women are consistently depicted in positive and powerful roles, it challenges stereotypes and biases. It shows that black women are capable of achieving greatness in various fields, such as science, politics, arts, sports and motherhood! Inclusivity is another crucial aspect of having black women as role models. When diverse voices and experiences are represented, it creates a more equitable society. It fosters empathy, understanding, and appreciation for different cultures and perspectives. It also dismantles harmful narratives that perpetuate inequality and discrimination. Thank you to my HBW (Hero Black Woman) Professor Jacqueline Dunkley-Bent OBE for inspiring me to use my life experiences to help others. #youhave2Bblessed2BAblessing
