In the wake of the recent horrific events in Atlanta and other cities, Women Make Movies (WMM) has been reflecting on the rise in anti-Asian sentiment and hate crimes against Asian-American communities. Women Make Movies has co-signed a collective community statement of solidarity with Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Atlanta chapter against misogyny, systemic violence, and white supremacy.
As an organization that supports women filmmakers at all intersections of race, class, and gender, we are making available select films that create greater awareness and that center and uplift the voices of Asian and Asian-American women. To begin — and in collaboration with Asian Women United and the filmmakers of SLAYING THE DRAGON and SLAYING THE DRAGON: RELOADED — WMM is making the following two films available for free through April 15, 2021.
They are also planning a panel discussion and will add more films in the coming weeks.
