THE LEGACY
The Legacy: From Gary Graham to Shaka Sankofa.
The film is about 3 generations of an African American family trapped by poverty, despair and prison and their struggle to break the cycle. Director Micki Dickoff and Co-Producer Christie Webb have been involved with this particular family for many years. But The Legacy is a broader story about our collective responsibility to help make the future better for all the children and families who live in conditions like this, for their sake and for our society's greater good. What will it take to make a difference for Gary Graham's grandchildren, and other young people like them, as they move into adulthood?
Please take a look at the introductory 3 minute film clip on the Kickstarter page; there are also 8 minutes of raw clips where you will learn more about the story of the Graham/Hawkins children. There is also posted 1 1/2 minute and 5 minute updates, so click on the Update Tab on the Kickstarter page too.
Kickstarter.com is all about grassroots filmmaking, where many small contributions, even of only $10.00 can make the film possible. People can pledge any amount and will get incentives in return at each level of giving. If we don't raise our goal of $15,000 by July 8, then no one's credit card is charged, and we don't get any of the money pledged. If we meet our goal, all the money pledged will go to film production to enable us to make a trailer to use for applying for larger grants.
So, if you think the film is worthy, please contribute and send the below link and story along to your contacts and post the link where you can.
