More statistics that verify what I said. It’s very clear who gets “chances” and who doesn’t in Hollywood.

It’s not jealously—I’m actually very happy this means there could be a push for young directors to get a chance!
But it’s a statistical fact that Hollywood literally looses BILLIONS annually bc they ignore Black storytellers 🤷🏾

Happy #PrideMonth here’s your annual reminder that I’m non-binary Haitian-American filmmaker in development for my feature film debut titled “Captain Zero”. An animated horror film about depression, digital nihilism, apartheid, and superheroes (kinda)

My speech on the Tennessee House Floor today as our state voted to eliminate Memphis's only majority Black congressional district.
Everyone needs to watch @Justinjpearson's floor speech from the TN State House.
"Today, you will take the only Black-majority district from us. But I want you to know: No matter what you do, no matter how much you try to break us & make us bend & quit — we will still be here."

I raised $230K to make the short film for @CaptainZeroTAS and when it initially released I put it up on my website for $1.50 then a month later put it out for FREE!
I’m not anywhere CLOSE to recouping the costs for production. Indie animation is a labor of love fr 🥲❤️🩹

@CaptainZeroTAS is a Psychological/Horror that acts as deconstruction of heroism, framing it as a maladaptive response to repressed childhood trauma that can only be resolved through the painful integration of one’s "shadow" and the abandonment of external validation.
