Presented by Cinereach, NEON, and the Ford Foundation, this panel explores Black creative authorship, cultural memory, and storytelling across generations. Featuring an exclusive excerpt from Once Upon a Time in Harlem—conceived by William Greaves, directed by David Greaves, and produced by Liani Greaves—the conversation brings together filmmakers and cultural leaders to examine how Black artists reclaim history, challenge dominant narratives, and shape cinema’s future.
