The 24th Annual Urbanworld Film Festival has confirmed additional spotlight conversations, its new Creativity Uncovered series, Overstand’s virtual pitch event, their #ShareTheMic IG Takeover and more special guests for its annual festival that will be 100% virtual this year from September 23-27, 2020 on urbanworld.org.
The festival has also added a spotlight conversation around Amazon Studios’ All In: The Fight for Democracy on Wednesday, September 23, 2020 at 5:00 P.M. ET. The documentary examines the often overlooked, yet insidious issue of voter suppression in the United States and interweaves personal experiences with current activism and historical insight to expose a problem that has consistently corrupted democracy. This action-oriented conversation will explore the roadmap required in the fight to transform voting processes and outcomes with directors Lisa Cortés and Liz Garbus along with activist DeRay McKesson and moderator Keith Boykin.
In recognition of National Voter Registration Day on Tuesday, September 22, 2020, the documentary will be available on Urbanworld’s Vimeo Channel for the full day (12:01am ET – 11:59pm ET), with an introduction by Fair Fight Action’s Stacey Abrams, along with directors and producers Garbus and Cortés.
