Laura Holman Rahman's Short "A Journey Shared : Reflections of Toni Cade Bambara" (2007,2008)

Toni Cade Bambara's work was instrumental in my social critique of women in media, development as a documentary filmmaker and charge as a social activist.

I produced, wrote & directed a tribute to her as my practicum while attending Spelman College. This is
a short documentary excerpt of 17 minute piece that has explosive heart filled expressions by student activists' women sharing a common journey of inner growth.

It exhibits student women activists who connect their activism to the work of documentary filmmaker, activist, writer and educator Toni Cade Bambara.

Bambara's vision of truth telling is
the embodiment of this documentary as these women's narratives exemplifies the struggles and triumphs of their shared charge to become agents of positive social change.
