Session Description: 

Presenters: Aurora Castellanos, Shahidah Lacy, Yianeth Saenz, Phred Swain-Sugarman, Taylor White and Scott Boswell of The Bay Area Video Collective

This screening / forum will give attendees the chance to view and discuss brand-new social justice shorts by youth from the Oakland Bay Area. Five teen filmmakers from The Factory will present and discuss their work covering a range of topics from the effects of NAFTA on immigration to post-traumatic stress amongst urban youth to reparations for African-Americans. The Factory is an Oakland-based digital filmmaking program of the Bay Area Video Coalition that engages teens to produce creative works bound for national exhibition. With an emphasis on creative and political expression, youth artists work collaboratively to produce professional quality work that aims to bring youth perspective, culture, and talent to a wide audience.
