Executive/Activist Elon Washington: "We Deserve Joy."
Sista Brunch: Black Voices in Entertainment06/23/20 • 37 min
Our conversation with Elon Washington will give you LIFE. We talked to Elon in late 2019, and this conversation feels just as relevant today. We talk about the importance of telling Black stories without the white gaze, why it's important to celebrate who we are in the media and how to pace yourself when you have to talk about repesentation all the time. This screenwriter and community organizer has a passion for providing visibility for underrepresented voices. She is the founder of Black Film Allegiance, a virtual platform promoting collaboration and creative opportunity for up-and-coming filmmakers. She's also the Development Manager for Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions where she addresses current and upcoming projects. --- Music Credits: Stock Media provided by AudioKraken / Pond5 Stock Media provided by BenBeats / Pond5
