Embodying Social Justice Values in Documentary Filmmaking through Reflection

Join us to hear Natalie Bullock Brown share how her path was shaped by the liberatory visions of Marlon Riggs, bell hooks, and Angela Y. Davis, and how those influences led to the creation of DAWG's collaborative, care-centered approach to documentary ethics. Drawing from DAWG's framework From Reflection to Release, she will discuss why accountable filmmaking must center participants, reject auteur myths, and embrace justice, dignity, and collective practice, principles that guided the development of the DAWG Syllabus and continue to anchor her work.
