Today’s the day! Didn’t think I’d make another short film, but when @netflixfilm and @filmindependent presented the opportunity, I couldn’t pass it up. I wrote and directed “Black Prom” during the pandemic with an amazing circle of artists, and it premieres today on Netflix’s Film Club Channel on YouTube and on @strongblacklead. It’s about youthful innocence and joy being suddenly disrupted by the brutality of our times, and what the world looks like when we care about people. It’s partly inspired by a prose poem I wrote, my fascination with prom as a black cultural celebration, and instances of brutality against human beings. We are so much more than the trauma we experience. We are people worthy of love and respect. Hope this film leaves you with some warmth. Link to the film is in my bio. Watch, like, comment, and share. Stay tuned for the trailer in the next post! Much love. 💜💖💜 #BlackProm #Netflix #shortfilm #filmindependent #love #light #riseUp #filmindependent #Emotion #SweetPotatoPieProductions #healingArt

The doc chronicles the true story of Shorty (Jerome Muhammad) a member of "Da Lench Mob," one of the most controversial platinum and gold rap recording groups of all time led by @icecube. Shorty's sole testimony is a colorful monologue that recants verified true stories about criminal activities and imprisonment to finding his purpose through gang intervention all while racing against time to save his own life.

      Today we remember and honor the lives of Deah Bara Today we remember and honor the lives of Deah Barakat, Yusor Abu-Salha, and Razan Abu-Salha, now affectionately known as “Our Three Winners.” Six years ago, on Feb. 10, 2015, the three young American Muslims were viciously executed in their own home in Chapel Hill, NC in an Islamophobic hate crime. We pray for them, their families, and loved ones and will continue to advocate for equality and an end to hate.

“Three Muslim men were nominated in the @goldenglobes acting category! This is very exciting news! Congrats!! I didn’t think I would live to see the day. But where are our Muslim sisters? Yesterday I was speaking to fellow Muslim women at @mwotampabay about what a new and small community we are in this industry. The elevation, support, and voice of Muslim women actors is vital, and I look forward to the day where I see us nominated at the Golden Globes and all award shows soon!”

“As a Black Hijabi woman, there is so much significance in World Hijabi Day and the first day of Black History Month converging. Celebrating these two identities, each so deeply entrenched in the fight for freedom, means that we have an opportunity to recognize both how far we have come, and how far we have to go in the quest for true equity. I am so proud to be a #BlackHijabi, and will celebrate every day.”
