“Being a part of such an important project aimed to get HBCU students outside is critically important. Our goal wasn't just to shoot a beautiful film in nature. We wanted the students to get excited about this trip, we wanted them to walk away wanting to spend most weekends outside after this. I'm grateful to be able to tell stories, but to be able to tell black stories completely changes my perspective on the responsibility at hand.
Working with @adriandwilson , @rongriswell , @trevorlately , and @cliford.mervil on this project behind the cameras was important for the students to see. It brings me joy to know that this experience will have a place in their lives and possibly shape in a positive way how they view the world around them. Representation matters and guidance is an important aspect of this.
I have a responsibility and don't take this for granted. “
- @rahrobinson , Director of Grassroots
Together, we can reach more HBCU students and people who will support our mission. After watching and liking the film, share it on your social channels and directly with someone you think should see it.
