CONNECT: RELATING THROUGH OUR COMMUNITY LENS
how one woman's film production company leverages partnerships to empower youth and communities to tell their own stories through the lens.
Many are aware of Milwaukee's rampant socio-economic segregation, leaving youth within these communities without direction, and other communities, sometimes separated by 'blocks,' the lack of awareness of each other's realities.
"Growing up Milwaukee" is just one of Tyshun Wardlaw's (founder of Wardlaw Productions) films - because behind every statistic is a story. The documentary chronicles the stories of three inner-city youth growing up in Milwaukee who struggles with the daily dilemma of growing up Black and avoiding becoming just another statistic. The film recently premiered at the American Black Film Festival's Online Edition and highlights the healing power of sharing our unique life lens.
