Driven by recent events (FSLC panel discussion that overlooked minority & female indie filmmakers in NYC) & similar incidents over the years, I created a new Facebook page to help raise the profiles of minority & female independent filmmakers - Diversity In Independent Film. Check it out, join, post relevant links, stories, & other material. The Fb group page has a dozen or so links already.
Also, a blog for the same project has been started - see it here. The blog will be more accessible to the world since you do not have to log into Facebook to read the content. Should be able to develop the blog to a pretty good starting point over the next few days, & soon there will be lots of daily stories about minority & female independent filmmakers.
