  2. "It is a peculiar sensation, this double-consciousness, this sense of always looking at one’s self through the eyes of others….

  4. This short film captured me. It didn’t even have to use words to express the story, just visual art. 

    Martine Chartrand’s animated short dives into the heart of Black culture with an exhilarating trip though history. Watch as a young boy traces his roots through the animated stories his grandmother shares with him about the events that shaped their cultural heritage.

    Peace.
