The Story of Us - Surviving the War on Woke: Black Storytelling in the Age of Backlash

Kimberlé Crenshaw and the African American Policy Forum return to the Sundance Film Festival for the fourth iteration of "The Story of Us." This year's panel will bring together essential Black voices from around the film and TV industry to assess the ways in which the backlash against global demands for racial justice in 2020 has exposed the fragile commitment to Black storytelling and creatives in Hollywood.

Presented by the African American Policy Forum

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
