We Are The Medicine Documentary Film Screening

Grateful to witness and be able to support the work-in-progress screening of ‘We Are The Medicine’ Telling a story of healing through the lens of hip hop culture. @radiokismet @awondrousmind @realsway @theestebanserrano @strokes_for_the_folks thanks for the #love wearing my custom #handpainted #tshirt #theroncookart @eblackstl @deran32 and many others have come together to curate a deeply vulnerable documentary to help illuminate their healing experiences with medicine and how the medicine movements have impacted BIPOC communities..

The pre-screening film event we attended left an indelible mark, urging us not to quit but to persevere. Amidst the anticipation and nerves, there was a notable moment when one of the panelists received his shirt adorned with a captivating and original drawing. Crafted by us but inspired by the themes of the pre-screen film, which explored the contrast between conventional medicine and natural remedies. Upon closer inspection, the drawing on the shirt encapsulated a mix of emotions, mirroring the complexities of this debate—hope in medical advances, resilience in the face of illness, and the inherent power of nature's healing properties. It served as a poignant reminder that even amidst this ongoing discourse, there's strength to be found in exploring diverse approaches to wellness, and giving up is never the answer. The event not only left us inspired but also instilled a newfound determination to navigate life's health challenges with courage and an open mind, thanks to the thought-provoking message conveyed by the film.
