CHICAGO —Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot announced the City has shortlisted three bidders to progress to the next stage of the bidding process for the city’s sole casino license. Following extensive evaluations, Bally’s Corporation at the Tribune Site, Hard Rock at the ONE Central Site, and Rivers 78 at the 78 site have been named finalists to develop a world-class casino-resort and entertainment experience in Chicago. From this group, the City will choose a final proposal to submit as the developer and operator of the Chicago casino for approval by City Council.

Mother uses pain for purpose of changing lives Continued from page 1 BY TIA CAROL JONES
Bosley said that first year after Terrell’s murder was a struggle for her, she tried to take her life twice. She realized God has a bigger plan for her life when she founded the organization, which bares the name of her son. To bring a change and peace in the community, the organization hosts a basketball tournament in the summer, in collaboration with New Bethlehem Church, located at 8850 S. Cottage Grove. In the past, more than 500 people have been in attendance. There are food giveaways and tables with resources. In the winter, the Terrell Bosley Anti Violence Association hosts a coat giveaway. The goal of that event is to giveaway at least 200 coats to young children in need. “We do that to uplift the community because I know there are so many people in need. I know that in order for me to save my other two sons I have to reach out and help everybody else,” she said. Bosley worked in banking for more than 20 years. Now, she works with Father Michael Pfleger at St. Sabina Church in Purpose Over Pain. The organization helps parents who have lost their children to gun violence. Bosley has turned her pain into purpose. Her motivation comes from God and from her trying to figure out a way to save her other two sons, her nephews and nieces, as well as the young people she works with at St. Sabina Church in an organization called the Brave Youth Leaders. “I believe that if I work hard and do the things I do, I might not see it in my lifetime, the change, but I believe my sons will see the change,” she said. Bosley credits her dad, who was the Pastor at New Bethlehem Church for more than 30 years. He helped keep her grounded and keeps her encouraged. Her husband also helps her, as well as her family. Bosley reached out to Father Pfleger when Terrell was killed because she heard him talking about gun violence. Pfleger took Pamela and her husband under his wing, teaching them how to go out and do prayer vigils in the community. She calls Pfleger her best friend. Bosley is very concerned with the gun violence taking place in Chicago. She gets phone calls from parents who are trying to bury their children, helping them with funeral arrangements, helping them set up GoFundMe pages to get money to pay for the funerals. She wants the money from the State of Illinois that is available for crime and gun violence prevention to go to the grassroots organizations that are on the ground doing the work in the trenches. The money will fund much needed resources in the community. “It’s going to take our people to come outside the house and bring our communities back, just like back in the day, our ancestors, they didn’t have much, but they came together and they united together, and they took care of each other. We have to realize the young Black men we see, I know they characterize them as gangs and selling drugs, we have to reach out to them and help,” she said. “It’s going to take us within our community to save our community. That’s why I do all the things I do with the Terrell Bosley organization because we have to come together and figure this thing out.
Because, nobody is going to save us.” Bosley’s other son, Trevon, is a youth activist who has participated in the March for Our Lives in Washington, DC, and he helped organize a March for Our Lives in Chicago. She is proud of her son and the work he has done to bring about peace. She described him as outspoken. She believes older people working with young people to end gun violence is imperative for anti-violence work. Bosley wants Black people to unite and come to the table and figure out how to save our community. Bosley wants other parents who have lost children to gun violence to know they cannot get through it alone. She encourages them to reach out to people and talk to positive people. She also encourages them to pray. And said, “if they can just fix their mouth to pray to God, He can help you.” For more information about the Terrell Bosley Anti Violence Association, email pambosley551@gmail.com, or call St. Sabina Church at (773) 483-4300.

POLITICAL AFFAIRS
LEGISLATORS CELEBRATE THE ANNIVERSARY OF CONSUMER PROTECTIONS AGAINST PREDATORY LENDING
On the anniversary of the Predatory Loan Prevention Act being signed into law, State Senators Jacqueline Collins (D-Chicago) and Cristina Castro (D-Elgin) reflect on the importance of dismantling systemic barriers to equitable lending practices especially for communities of color at a press conference held recently. “I am incredibly pleased to have seen a year go by since the signing of my legislation capping interest rates on all consumer loans at 36%,” Collins said. “Abusive financial practices target communities of color and entrench racial poverty, which makes interest rate caps so critical for the benefit and restoration of our vulnerable populations.” On this day last year, Senate Bill 1792 of the 101st General Assembly was signed into law by the governor after passing both chambers with bipartisan support, officially establishing the Predatory Loan Prevention Act. This measure prohibits lenders from charging interest rates higher than 36% on consumer loans. The initiative, championed by Senator Collins with the unwavering support of fellow legislators such as Senator Castro, is one component of an economic equity package introduced by the Illinois Legislative Black Caucus. “Previously, vulnerable individuals looking to get back on their feet were coerced into short-term loans with offensively high interest rates,” Castro said. “This legislation is critical in preventing predatory loan practices and will help create credibility in our communities for future generations.” The law helps borrowers, primarily those in communities of color and low income communities, escape the vicious cycle of debt associated with interest rates and fees. Studies show individuals in predominantly Black communities are more likely to have a payday loan than their White counterparts. As historically disenfranchised populations rely more heavily on financial institutions for economic support, the 36% rate cap has demonstrated its benefit for Black and Brown communities. Through their dedication and service to economically disadvantaged communities, legislators continue to work toward the reduction of the racial wealth gap in our state.
STATE SENATOR HARRIS TO PREVENT ALIMONY PAYMENTS TO ABUSIVE SPOUSES To prevent an abusive partner from receiving spousal support, State Senator Napoleon Harris, III (D-Harvey) introduced legislation to create the Domestic Violence Maintenance Task Force. “Victims of abuse should not have to pay alimony to an abusive spouse, regardless of their financial situation,” Harris said. House Bill 861 creates the Domestic Violence Maintenance Task Force. The task force will review domestic cases involving domestic violence and maintenance awards, also known as alimony, and issue recommendations to improve court procedures regarding a maintenance award when a spouse has been convicted of domestic battery or aggravated domestic battery against the other spouse. “Requiring any spouse to pay alimony to their partner who has been convicted of domestic or aggravated battery is unjust and should be written in Illinois law,” Harris said. House Bill 861 passed the Senate Judiciary Committee and will now head to the full Senate for further debate
SENATOR MATTIE HUNTER BILL TO CREATE TASK FORCE ON MISSING AND MURDERED WOMEN
SPRINGFIELD – For decades, dozens of women have been missing or murdered in Chicago with little to no answers for their families. That’s why State Senator Mattie Hunter (D-Chicago) is sponsoring legislation to address this issue. “When a loved one goes missing or is murdered, that takes a huge toll on a family, and that is a pain that will never go away,” Hunter said. “That pain is magnified when the family is left with no answers, which is why we need a task force to offer guidance for how to handle these cases better.” House Bill 3988 creates the Task Force on Missing and Murdered Chicago Women Act. The task force will examine and report on the systemic causes behind violence that Chicago women and girls experience. The report will explore methods for tracking and collecting data on violence against Chicago women and girls, policies and institutions that impact violence against them, measures necessary to address and reduce violence against them, and ways to help victims and their families and communities. “Women that go missing or turn up murdered anywhere is unacceptable, and in Chicago specifically, we’ve found this to be a pressing issue,” Hunter said. “The families of Black and Brown women that are missing or murdered are even less likely to get answers. We need to get to the root of the problem to protect our women and girls.” House Bill 3988 passed the Senate Public Safety Committee Tuesday and awaits further action from the full Senate.

Tanya Marie Design...... Art inspired, global traveled life style brand with bright, happy., indigenous fabrics. This free-spirited brand is the love and passion of celebrity designer, Tanya Marie Mclendon. Jamaican born Miami native, she has always had a passion for unique Avant Garde designs. As a child she watched her mother buy beautiful dresses, cut a slit up the side and say “I’m ready to go”. Free hand with a pair of scissors, creating her own fabulous versions of whatever her BlackPRWire heart desired, the designer gene was passed down to Tanya Marie. While studying business at the University of Miami, this former Miami Heat dancer & Miami Dolphins cheerleader worked in high end boutiques, starting out as a stylist and eventually a buyer. Her parents could not understand why she wouldn’t get a “real job” lol. It was simply due to that fact that her passion was to help women feel their best by looking their best. Within these boutiques, Tanya Marie began perfecting her own craft. She would take a designer Roberto Cavalli gown that was not getting the clients attention it deserved, so she would add her own flair, cut it up and taking it back on the sales floor. Immediately, those items became the boutiques’ most desired items. There began her passionate love affair with design; instinctively and effortlessly Tanya Marie hand sew intricate details to create her own magical items from scratch, gaining the admiration and cult following from socialites and celebrities alike. Tanya Marie found her divine purpose, never forgetting that clothes are to fit the woman, not the other way around.
After having multiple boutiques in Miami- Design District, Coconut Grove, Biscayne and Merrick Park mall across from Gucci, today she’s operating out of her Fort Lauderdale House of TM showroom as well as hosting her virtual show “TM Shopping Network” on Instagram @ “Tanyamariethedesigner” 7pm Thursdays, you can experience her design imagination in person through her choice in rich, colorful fabrics and textures. She regularly travels to culturally rich fabric hot spots all over the world for fabrics and craftmanship to create hand-made enchanting, flowing, one-of-a-kind design art pieces which are custom tailored to flatter and honor every woman. She calls it “Fashion Freedom!!” Tanya Marie currently resides in South Florida and has an upcoming YouTube show “The Thrifting Trillionaire” which will show her love of creating masterpieces out of landfill and forgotten items. as she travels the world one of her goals is creating employment in regions from across the Caribbean and Africa. Her non-profit “Teach a Girl to Sew” teaches women and girls how to be a boss.

16 Year Old Makes History as Youngest Black Owner Of A Beauty Supply Store (Black PR Wire) Not many 16-year olds can say that they have a successful business under their belts, let alone two. Yet, that’s exactly what Paris Mckenzie is doing. This young lady is currently juggling a beauty supply store and a salon while tackling her education. What’s even better is that this is far from the end of her journey. Paris’ Early Years It might not seem strange for Paris to open a beauty supply store when you know her history. According to her interviews, her mother opened a salon a few months after giving birth to her. As a result, Paris grew up helping around the store. From as early as the age of 10, she’d mastered cleaning the barber tools, wiping down the salon chairs, and shampooing the clients’ hair. Within a couple of years, her mother was asking her to color and install wigs. This start at the salon led to her working with clients when she wasn’t in school. Paris notes that she saved all the money she earned because she had no responsibilities to take care of. Since this money would be integral to the next step in her life, it’s a good thing that she did. The Inspiration Behind Her Business Even as a child, Paris noted certain issues for the Black women
in her community. When they were searching for the hair products they needed, they often had to travel far from home to find them. Additionally, shopping wasn’t usually a pleasant experience because African American women tend to be under higher surveillance in beauty supply stores. Since they felt rushed, it was unlikely that they’d spend the time necessary for finding exactly what suited them. When the space beside her mother’s salon became available, it offered an opportunity for Paris to make a difference in her community. Though the store was originally offered to her mother, the entrepreneurial young woman used her savings to lease the space. That’s how Paris Beauty Supplyz was born in the summer of 2020. Expanding Her Business Paris is the first to admit that running a business wasn’t in her original plans. As she grew in her role as a business owner, however, another opportunity opened up. The building that her mother occupied had three stories but only two of them were being used. Since her mother had no plans for the top floor, Paris decided to open her own salon – La Eiffel Beauty Bar. While she loves her supply store, she calls the salon her “baby” because of how much work she put into it to add a personal touch.

COMMISSIONER DONNA MILLER HOLDS ‘TEN SHARED PRINCIPLES OF POLICING’ SIGNING WITH DISTRICT POLICE CHIEFS AND MAYORS TO ADVANCE EQUITABLE POLICING Mayors and police chiefs from across the 6th District sign commitment to advance improve policing
Cook County Commissioner Donna Miller held a signing of the NAACP’s “Ten Shared Principles of Policing” for mayors and police chiefs from across the 6th District at the Oak Forest City Hall to express the commitment shared across the district for equitable policing. The 10 Shared Principles were signed by Commissioner Miller, President of the NAACP Illinois State Conference Teresa Haley, President of the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police and Chief of Police of Hazel Crest Mitchell Davis, and mayors and police chiefs from the district’s 36 municipalities. 26 of the 36 municipalities in the 6th District have adopted the Ten Shared Principles. “The Ten Shared Principles provide a foundation on which we can build strong relationships between our communities and law enforcement throughout and beyond the Southland,” said Cook County Commissioner Donna Miller. “Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, and I’m so proud that such a diverse group of leaders came together today to reaffirm their support of these principles and celebrate the diversity, community, and unity of the 6th District. I’m grateful to the many partners we’ve had in this work, and look forward to continuing to advance equitable policing together.”
The Ten Shared Principles were first created by the Illinois NAACP and the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police in 2018 to improve policing throughout the state and ensure all individuals are treated with dignity and respect by law enforcement. Nearly 230 entities throughout Illinois have adopted the principles since then. Under legislation led by Cook County Commissioner Scott Britton and co-sponsored by Commissioner Miller, the Cook County Forest Preserves Police and Cook County Sheriff adopted the principles in 2020. “When I first brought the Ten Shared Principles to the Cook County Board, my goal was both actionable and aspirational: to ensure every municipality embraced them in meaningful ways,” said Cook County Commissioner for the 14th District Scott Britton. “I am grateful to Commissioner Miller for her partnership with all the municipalities in the 6th District to adopt the Principles, which continues our efforts to ensure policing for Cook County residents is conducted in a fair, transparent, and equitable manner.” In recent months, Commissioner Miller met with mayors and police chiefs across her district’s 36 municipalities to discuss issues of crime, violence, and policing in the Southland and encourage their participation in the signing of the Ten Shared Princi-
ples. In bringing together elected officials, community leaders, local law enforcement, and advocates for this show of support, Commissioner Miller hopes other law enforcement agencies in Cook County and across the state will be encouraged to sign the principles. “When we first created the Ten Shared Principles, we envisioned building stronger communities and better interactions with law enforcement for all Illinoisans, and we’ve been so encouraged by the commitment exhibited across the state,” said NAACP Illinois State Conference President Teresa Haley. “I’m proud to see representatives from across Cook County’s 6th District come together today to sign the principles, and I’m thankful to Commissioner Miller for her advocacy on this crucial initiative.” “I am pleased to sign on to these principles today on behalf of both the Hazel Crest Police Department and the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police,” said Mitchell Davis, Chief of Police for the Hazel Crest Police Department and President of the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police. “We all have a responsibility to help improve relationships between law enforcement and the Southland community, and I’m grateful to Commissioner Miller for her leadership in the 6th District.”

Los Angeles, CA – Los Angeles-based premium denim label Citizens of Humanity has partnered with LA’s most sought-after tattoo artist, Dr. Woo for the launch of his first-ever coffee table book, Everything is Permanent. Dr. Woo (A.K.A. Brian Woo) is leading the movement where tattoos, art and fashion become one in the same. After getting his start under the legendary tattoo artist, Mark Mahoney at the Shamrock Social Club, Dr. Woo learned the design and intricacy of the single needle style for which he is known for. He has taken single needle tattoos from a subculture to the focus of popular culture at large and has established quite the assembly of celebrity clientele due to his surgeon-like precision. Some of his most recognizable work includes a trio of tiny dragons on Emilia Clarke’s wrist, leaves on Zoe Kravitz’s hands, or a moving tribute to Nick Cordero on Zach Braff’s arm. Everything is Permanent will feature a visual compilation of some of those most beloved designs including a special introduction by Zoe Kravitz and Paul Mittleman and art direction by Brian Roettinger of Perron-Roettinger. Throughout the pages, readers can explore the evolution of his signature, unique, and intricate single-needle designs. Woo shares: “This book means a lot to me - it’s a collection of a lot of different drawings and tattoos that represent my creative path to where I am now. It’s just a small glimpse into the last decade or so, but hopefully we can build in different volumes and add more stories and more ideas to inspire others who look through them.“ The book, pictured here (Photography by: Justin Bettman), which was creative directed and published by Citizens of Humanity, is available for purchase exclusively on citizensofhumanity. com as well as in-store with a selection of specialty partners (retail: $75 USD). Citizens of Humanity’s Creative Director of Branding, Jared Freedman, gives some insight on how the partnership came about: “In this digital age, things move so fast and social media oftentimes gives you only a glimpse at someone’s journey.

April Is Community College Month and City Colleges of Chicago Invites You to Visit Our Colleges as Registration for Summer and Fall Opens April 6th April is Community College Month and City Colleges of Chicago (CCC) invites Chicagoans to explore educational pathways offered at CCC, including scholarship offerings and open houses. “The past two years have been anything but normal and we know it has disrupted plans to go to college. Now is the time to explore what City Colleges has to offer,” said Juan Salgado, Chancellor of CCC. “We have pathways into some of the fastest growing career pathways that include manufacturing, engineering and computer science, healthcare, hospitality, teaching, cybersecurity, and more.” Now is the best time to prepare for a new career or get that promotion, and CCC wants to support efforts with a financial boost to Chicagoans wanting to start or resume their college education. CCC’s Future Ready program will once again be offered this summer. In this program students can earn certifications in high-demand fields at no cost to new students. New this year, CCC is holding CPS enrollment days on May 17, 18, 19 for CPS high schools to learn about offerings at all seven City Colleges. This is a great opportunity for students to get in-person support on applications and financial aid. This includes information for students at options and charter schools. In addition, high school students can apply for the Star Scholarship for the upcoming Fall CCC term. Here is what our students said. In 2021, Marvin Howell graduated from Lincoln Park High School and was accepted into DePaul University. Due to the pandemic, his plans shifted, so he decided to take a
gap year. “I was a little perplexed on what to do next when a friend told me about the Star Scholarship program at CCC… it saved my family and me thousands of dollars and gave me some direction on next steps.” Marvin’s career goals vary, but he knows he wants to be in finance and have his own firm, saying “I want to drive an ‘impact investment fund’ and help people transform their lives.” Recently, the Kennedy-King College student was accepted into Citibank’s apprentice program through City Colleges, where he has been working in the automotive group, pairing with an analyst to help them model companies and create pitch decks. “This opportunity is setting me up for a successful career in finance. Apprenticeship programs are game changers.” “City Colleges of Chicago is an excellent place to feel supported and build a foundation for what you want to do next,” said Antoinette McIntosh, a student in the Paramedics pathway at Malcolm X College (MXC). In 2021, Antoinette graduated from MXC’s 16-week EMT program. “After the EMT program, I got a job right away with an ambulance company but while studying to be an EMT, I realized I wanted to do more so that’s why I applied for the paramedic program at MXC.” Antoinette knows she wants to be a surgeon and has plans to transfer to UIC after her graduation this September. Applying for scholarships and grant programs is a big part of many college students’ journeys, and City Colleges offers a range of opportunities for Chicagoans seeking to advance their education and job prospects. Visit www.ccc.edu/ scholarships or click here to view the funding opportunities.
City Colleges would also like to invite CPS grads to get a jumpstart on their college journey this summer while earning up to $1,000. From June 27 to August 5, new City Colleges students across the city can earn college credit by taking a 3-credit hour college level course and a 1-credit college success course. This will help to ensure their momentum into and through college early in their first year. Additional advising is offered and English tutoring and Math support.

STANLEY NELSON AND JACQUELINE OLIVE SET TO DIRECT ‘THE COLOR OF COLA’ DOCUMENTARY NEW YORK PRNewswire -- Award-winning filmmakers Stanley Nelson and Jacqueline Olive will direct The Color of Cola, an inspirational documentary that sheds light on the experience of an all-Black sales team, the first of its kind for any major corporation, tasked with tapping the African American market in the Jim Crow South. Based on Stephanie Capparell’s “The Real Pepsi Challenge: How One Pioneering Company Broke Color Barriers in 1940s American Business,” the documentary will take viewers on a journey marked by persistence and fortitude. The Color of Cola, now in production, will be brought to life by filmmaker and founder of Firelight Films Stanley Nelson, filmmaker Jacqueline Olive, and executive produced by Viola Davis and Julius Tennon’s JuVee Productions. The stories of Black pioneers are not unfamiliar, but oftentimes go untold. The Color of Cola aims to elevate one such story exploring a time when corporate America did not include Black professionals, and the Black experience was stereotypically portrayed. The extraordinary efforts of these individuals mirror the courage of many who fought to propel America closer to its aspirations and ideals. “With The Color of Cola I look forward to telling the story of the first Black sales team established in the corporate world,” said director Stanley Nelson. “This project harkens back to my very first feature film Two Dollars and a Dream, about the amazing life of Madam C.J. Walker, America’s first self-made Black woman millionaire. I was able to touch on Madam Walker’s story again, among other stories of Black entrepreneurship, in a more recent film of mine – Boss: The Black Experience in Business. I see The Color of Cola as a continuation of my past work highlighting the achievements of groundbreaking Black business leaders, whose stories are still underrepresented and often underappreciated in the context of American history.” Stanley Nelson’s body of work has garnered countless awards and accolades. Most recently, his film ‘Attica’ is nominated for an Academy Award for best documentary feature and won the DGA Award for Outstanding Achievement in Documentary. In addition to honors for his individual films, Nelson is a MacArthur “Genius” Fellow, and was awarded an individual Peabody Award, the 2016 Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Academy of Television Arts Sciences, and received the National Medal in the Humanities from President Barack Obama. His feature-length
films combine compelling narratives with rich and deeply researched historical detail, shining new light on both familiar and under-explored aspects of the American past. Nelson’s recent work includes Miles Davis: Birth of the Cool, delving into the life and career Miles Davis, and his most recent film, Attica, opened the 2021 Toronto International Film Festival and debuted on Showtime in November. “What first attracted me to the project was the opportunity to tell the story of this pioneering sales team of Black men whose work launched an effort at corporate diversity that laid the foundation for meaningfully engaging what has become a trillion dollar Black consumer market today,” said director Jacqueline Olive. “If you think it doesn’t get much more powerful than that, Ed Boyd and his team, in the process, helped open the American consciousness to just how dynamic Black life truly was in the late 1940s, so the throughline of this story to benchmarks of cultural diversity in the present is remarkable. I could not be more excited to direct this film with Stanley Nelson in collaboration with our talented team at All Day Every Day, LAMF, and Pepsi.” “With ‘The Color of Cola,’ Viola and I were really excited about exploring another story that’s been hidden in the amazon of American history,” said Julius Tennon. “These men had grit, tenacity, and sheer will, being the first black sales force in corporate America. We couldn’t have better directors and partners than Stanley Nelson and Jacqueline Olive to bring this incredible documentary to life. I think we’ll all get a snapshot into what Jim Crow America was like and get to understand some of the challenges that these brave African American men faced.” Last year, PepsiCo announced its Racial Equality Journey, a more than $570 million set of initiatives over five years focused on increasing Black and Hispanic managerial representation at PepsiCo; leveraging its scale and influence across suppliers and strategic partners to increase Black and Hispanic representa-

These HBCUs will continue to deliver historic events such as sports icon and coach Deion Sanders signing the number one overall prospect in the class of 2022--five-star cornerback Travis Hunter--making this a truly amazing league,” said Byron Allen, Founder/Chairman/CEO of HBCU GO parent company Allen Media Group. “I appreciate SWAC Commissioner Dr. Charles McClelland for partnering with us to deliver over 2,000 sporting events and engaging content on every device 24/7 worldwide.”
tion, elevating diverse voices and creators in its content; and working in communities to drive long-term change by addressing systemic barriers to economic opportunity and advancing economic empowerment for Black and Hispanic Americans. “At PepsiCo, we know that our company can only succeed when our associates and the societies we serve thrive. That’s why we have long been committed to fostering a diverse workforce that reflects our consumer base and society at all levels of the company,” said PepsiCo Chairman and CEO Ramon Laguarta. “This commitment to racial equality is part of our company’s DNA, going back to this our first Black sales team. The legacies of Allen Mckellar, Jr., Jeanette Maund, Harvey C. Russell, and many more leaders in our rich history continue to inspire our actions and serve as a beacon for advancing our journey towards a more diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace and world.” The Color of Cola documentary is co-produced by the Los Angeles Media Fund under the leadership of Co-Founders Jeffrey Soros and Simon Horsman, and in association with Pepsi’s in-house content studio. Executive producers include Michael Karbelnikoff and Peter Kline for Alldayeveryday, and Mark Landsman. “We feel most fortunate to have filmmakers with Stanley Nelson and Jacqueline Olive’s vision and integrity in bringing this important yet largely unknown history to light,” said Jeffrey Soros and Simon Horsman. This project will elevate diverse voices, and it will also share a powerful piece of American history - inspiring viewers to utilize their collective power to help catalyze meaningful change in our society and for generations to come. CAA Media Finance arranged financing and will handle sales.
