Coming this Fall 2010 from Awaken Pictures is my latest project - a compelling new Black History documentary:
"Freedom Lost: Restoration"
Chapter 1: Memorial
from The Freedom Lost Project.
I've been working on this film little by little since 2005. I've been researching the rich Black History of New Bern (the colonial capital of North Carolina) and James City ( a city that began as a refugee camp for runaway slaves during the Civil War) in Eastern North Carolina since 2001. So while you all see me working on tons of projects today-- a lot of them have taken many years of blood, sweat, and tears to get completed by God's grace. By His grace my family is still standing. It's been a real intense battle to get this film completed.
