Three Black Men

Filmmaker Sienna McLean LoGreco (fiscal sponsor: Center for Independent Documentary) is creating a film documenting the Three Black Men project, which retraced the Transatlantic slave route in reverse, hosting community gatherings in the US, Brazil, and Ghana to engage in collective inquiry about racial justice, healing, and liberation in our world today. The documentary team accompanied Resmaa Menakem, Bayo Akomolafe, and Orland Bishop across three continents, gathering compelling footage of this unique journey. The film offers a vision of healing that deconstructs narrow conceptions of Blackness to uncover the beauty, wholeness, and vibrancy that live underneath those projections. In deeply seeing these men and the communities, we more clearly see ourselves and how we might move toward collective healing as we open new paths.
