Freedom or Everybody Dies, his first short film, was showcased at the Museum of African American Music and included in the 2006 Black Harvest International Film Festival. Most recently, Hanif participated in ‘3rd Wave’, a group show sponsored by the Brooklyn Arts Council. He currently serves as resident documentarian for YouthBuild Newark.
Jamel Shabazz has been documenting urban life for over 30 years. Shabazz is the author of several books including Back in the Days and A Time Before Crack. He also volunteers with the Rush Arts Philanthropic Foundation and the Studio Museum’s Expanding the Walls project, a workshop focused on teaching youth the connection between photography, history and community.
