MISSION
Currently, corporate controlled media does not tell our story and we realize they probably never will (if they do, they won’t tell it well). We’re going to create a media or rather, a way of telling our own news, stories, his/her stories to our communities. Regardless if corporate media listens or not, because we are going to listen to each other.
CHALLENGES
We’ve been partnering with Leeds city council for several years to help them create media that connects their audience visually to the incredible work they do. Our projects have covered topics that range from the School to poverty, Extremism to Interaction between different faiths.
