Ok some of you might know about the riots in France,
I'm right in the heart of where all this started and is going on. I can literally walk to the burned out areas.
I'm not sure what they are saying on North American news but rest assured this is about race and prejudice. I've experienced a taste of it because I'm an immigrant and speak the acadien dialect. (A dialect they don't recognize as "french" one.)
But I'm white so I'm better off than those rioting. Rest assured what France is experiencing is exactly the same thing the southern United State experienced almost 50 years ago. I can almost hear Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks speaking in french from their graves.
Donc,
I'm dusting off my mainstream-idependant film maker shoes and going to work. There is a story that needs to be told and people need to be made aware of the problems.
I'm doing this pro-bona and I'm searching or other people to also do this pro-bona. I will need a video editor, channel of distribution, etc. All or any profits after expenses are covered will be used or donated to an organization to that fights racism or promotes equal rights.
If you are interested -- email me directly
Thanks
Hamilton
