She is a stuttering child from Alabama, abused step daughter from Harlem, single mother struggling to raise her children, artist revolutionary battling oppression on all fronts. Sonia's poetry, performance and reflections weave together to create a moving "cine poem."
"Shake Loose Memories" celebrates the work of Ms. Sanchez as a poet and activist. The film is a
nchored around interviews with Sanchez, Amiri Baraka, her family, and two live performances of "The "Full Moon of Sonia," a ground breaking eclectic mix of spoken word, jazz, R&B, hip-hop, and blues celebrating her life and work of a cultural icon. Sonia Sanchez' influence is far-reaching and wide ranging and can be heard in such artists as Mos Def, Jill Scott, and Talib Kweli, to name a few. She is a beacon of the Black Arts Movement.

“BID EM’ IN”
ARTIVIST AWARDS: BEST SHORT – HUMAN RIGHTS
Director: Neil Sopata
An animated musical short-film version of an Oscar Brown Jr. song, "Bid 'Em In" is a harrowing, percussive tale of a woman being auctioned off at a slave market in 19th century America.
“UMOJA”
2011 ARTIVIST AWARDS: BEST SHORT – HUMAN RIGHTS
Director: Elizabeth Tadic
"Umoja: No Men Allowed" tells the amusing and life-changing true story of a group of tribal Samburu women in Northern Kenya who reclaim their lives, turning age-old patriarchy on its head, when they set up a women's only village. Their story began many years ago when almost 600 women admitted to being raped by British soldiers. When the women returned home, their husbands beat them and cast them out, asserting they had brought shame to their families for being raped. In 1995, several survivors banded together to establish the women-only village of Umoja [freedom], on an unoccupied field in the dry grasslands. The finale is a showdown between the women and a village chief sent in to resolve the conflict. But there's simply no turning back for these brave women who are committed towards reclaiming their lives, their identity, and their future.
