I’m looking at you, Eddie Red-shame. Does it matter who tells our stories?

With SXSW Filmmakers Wes Hurley (Potato Dreams of America) and Mari Walker (See You Then) and aGLIFF and Slamdance Filmmaker Angela Washko (Workhorse Queen), moderated by aGLIFF Artistic Director Bears Rebecca Fonte.

Followed by a Meet and Greet with the Filmmakers
