From TV to Policy

How Film and Television Shape Public Perception 

Join us for a conversation on how portrayals of Black and Brown communities in television and film shape public perception, influence policymakers, and ultimately impact the laws that govern our lives. The panel will examine how harmful on-screen narratives can lead to harmful real-world policies, and how accurate, empowering storytelling can drive meaningful change.

Register here to join the discussion on how representation can inform public understanding and shape meaningful change.
