Every story shapes what audiences believe is possible.
That’s why In Our Own Voice, Level Forward, and Population Media Center are inviting filmmakers to help create a new generation of stories about Black motherhood.
We’re seeking original short-film proposals that challenge dominant narratives and reflect the dignity, complexity, resilience, care, joy, and possibility that Black women say are too often missing from film and media.
Selected filmmakers will join an innovative storytelling initiative grounded in community insight, narrative strategy, and Reproductive Justice principles.
Whether you’re an emerging filmmaker or an established creator, we encourage you to bring us stories that help audiences imagine new futures for Black women and families.
Learn how this initiative is grounded in the Narrative Power for Justice Initiative.
