To commemorate United Nations's International Day for People of African Descent. My Girl Story LLC, producer of the My Girl Story documentary, is partnering with NGO and international organizations Bell Global Justice Institute and Cedar Seed Foundation to explore the top issues facing girls with disabilities from the African diaspora.

About the documentary:

My Girl Story gives context to what the two girls featured, Monay and Shokana went through. And it gives context to what girls across the country are encountering today.

Our social impact:

Through the documentary we hope to challenge the insitutitional and systemic barriers that prevents black girls especially those with disabilities from acheiving their potential. We want girls to find their voice. We want to create change that improve girl lives well into womanhood.

Immediately after the film screening at 11:30 am est and 4:30 wst, join us for a live panel discussion with women from the African Diaspora to tell their stories, share resources and ways to help girls with disabilities in the United States and abroad.

You can watch the discussion on My Girl Story Documentary Facebook page, Youtube page and Linked In.
