event
From November 13–22, Earth Pearl Collective presents Sovereign, a queer Black women film festival themed around Life, Love, and Liberation.
Presented in partnership with the Northwest Film Forum, and with support from The Hansberry Project, this year’s festival focuses on queer Black women film artists and directors. We will be showcasing films from Nairobi, Kenya, Mexico, South Africa, and from all over the United States.
Seattle-based artists like poet/songstress Jessica Rycheal and dancer/visual artist Takiyah Ward will be premiering new work. Earth Pearl Collective supports the work of women living at the intersections of the African Diaspora who are dedicated to healing their communities through creative collaborations.
Witness the trials and triumphs of the everyday life events that build resilience in queer Black women, and tune in Nov. 13 at 7pm PST for a panel discussion with Sex Therapist Dr. Katrina Sanford and Spiritual Therapeutic Counselor Chioma Petway.
From self love to first loves, this series of films will delve into sex, relationships, and intimacy. Featuring a special curated program for audiences 18+, by Washington D.C. based production company The Haux Hive, available Nov. 14 at 8pm PST only.
It is time to reimagine the future of queer Black women. This series will venture into Afrofuturism, social media trends, and hilarious friendships. On Nov. 15 at 2pm PST, join an afternoon panel to hear from featured directors in the program about how seeing Black joy on screen increases Black joy in life.
