Friends,

We're excited to celebrate Black Women's History Month by inviting you to a special virtual screening and discussion of And She Could Be Next, the story of a defiant group of women of color who are transforming politics from the ground up.

Please join us along with leaders from the Partnership for Working Families (PWF) and Georgia STAND UP for a special virtual screening of NAACP Image Award nominated documentary And She Could Be Next on Wednesday, April 14th.

The screening will be followed by a discussion featuring Georgia STAND UP Executive Director Deborah Scott, film producer Jyoti Sarda, LAANE Executive Director Roxana Tynan, and PWF California Director Elly Matsumura.

“And She Could Be Next” Virtual Screening and Discussion
Wednesday, April 14, 2021
5 - 6:30 PT | 8 - 9:30 ET

Filmed throughout 2018 and into 2019 by a team of women filmmakers of color, the two-part miniseries features a dynamic slate of history-makers including: Stacey Abrams (GA), Rashida Tlaib (MI), Lucy McBath (GA), Veronica Escobar (TX), Maria Elena Durazo (CA), and Bushra Amiwala (IL). It also follows the incredible “hidden figures” of the movement—women of color organizers without whose work, nothing would be possible. In our story, absolutely nobody is waiting to be saved.

And She Could Be Next asks whether democracy itself can be preserved—and made stronger—by those most marginalized.

We hope you will join us for this special event honoring the transformative political leadership of women of color!
