Introducing OUT HERE

October 07, 2020 20:20 - 4 minutes - 4.46 MB

OUT HERE is a folklore series. I'm Kyana Gordon. And in June, 2019, I took a leap of faith and traveled across America to meet thirty-one everyday people who believed in my vision and reflected on the intimate details of their lives. We talked about E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G: memories, love, community, the state of America, home, safety, and the values that have fortified their survival.
