Compelled by incomplete and bias presentations of Black People and Black Culture, Documentarians Teanna & Peter Okojie set out to capture and tell stories of the Black Community that you don't hear or see. Tee grew up in San Diego, CA while Peter was born and raised in Nigeria, but their work has led them to travel the world to share Black stories more accurately. In this conversation, we discuss the importance of telling Black stories accurately through film, photography, and other media and the role storytelling plays in affecting positive change.
