I don't know how we haven't shared this yet, but this was an absolute joy to work on with the Fair Housing Center of Central Indiana this year. We met so many wonderful people and organizations in the process and got to collaborate with some great creative friends as well.

When the Fair Housing Act was passed in 1968, it made it unlawful to discriminate in housing transactions due to protected classes. Unfortunately, what the F...

As always, we are grateful to be able to share our work that we do with the Fair Housing Center of Central Indiana. As we showed in our last video about real estate sales discrimination in Indianapolis, people of color have been shut out of homeownership in America for decades. Redlining denied people of color loans based on their race, ethnicity, religion, and geographic location. But in the past few decades, lending institutions started utilizing Reverse Redlining as a way to further harm and exploit people of color. This video explores what that can look like.

Please watch & share & consider donating to FHCCI. Reverse Redlining still happens TODAY.

It’s finally here! Give “A History of Real Estate Sales Discrimination in Indianapolis” a watch & tell us what you think!

And if you or someone you know in Indiana believes they may have been discriminated against in real estate (or any form of housing), please call FHCCI & they will gladly help.

We’ve never been more excited to premiere a video than we are for this one. Working with FHCCI is always a joy and so educational. We feel so privileged to be in partnership with them. We were also humbled and fortunate to have the opportunity to work with incredible local artist and animator, Rachel Leigh. She was a dream to collaborate with and was intentional with even the most minor decisions. We feel so lucky.

Keep your eyes peeled this Thursday for the release of “the History of Real Estate Sales Discrimination in Indianapolis.”

A few weeks ago, we created this poem video in collaboration with Manon Voice for Spirit & Place's annual festival. We are so grateful to Rinard Orchid Greenhouse - Ball State University for letting us film in their beautiful and inspiring greenhouse. It was the perfect backdrop to Manon’s poem. This piece explores reconciliation and the continuous & necessary repair of our communities.

A portion of the proceeds will be regularly gifted to organizations in Indianapolis fighting for racial justice including but not limited to The Bail Project, Indy 10 Black Lives Matter, No Questions Asked Food Pantry, and The Never Alone Project.

The beauty of anti-racism is that you don't have to pretend to be free of racism to be an anti-racist. Anti-racism is the commitment to fight racism wherever you find it, including in yourself. And it's the only way forward. -Ijoema Oluo Inspired by the words of Angela Davis, Ijoema Oluo and Ibram

A huge thanks to Dr Terri Jett for lending her voice and Tyson C***s for bringing everything to life.

In order to understand how our neighborhoods have become so segregated, it's important to go back in time and learn about the history of harmful policies, su...
