Today on the podcast, and the 2nd anniversary of the overturning of Roe v. Wade, Asha Dahya speaks with Florencia Varela of Peace Is Loud and Lela Meadow-Conner of rePROFilm, along with several filmmakers who participated in the recent Collective Lens Impact Training program to talk about why supporting films in reproductive justice is so important.
Peace is Loud is a 501(c)3 non-profit that harnesses the power of storytelling by women, trans, and nonbinary change makers to mobilize strategic collective action grounded in equity and care. Through our Film Impact Campaigns and Speakers Bureau, we use stories to connect people with tools for action, and strengthen the influence of women-identified and gender-expansive storytellers.
Through film and conversation, rePROFilm advocates for reproductive health, justice and bodily autonomy. We lift intersectional issues, using the power of storytelling as a catalyst for knowledge, intention and action. rePROFilm publishes the monthly Periodical, a content drop featuring a curated short film, original podcast & more; and presents in-person screenings across the country. rePROFilm is a project of mamafilm, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.
