AV INITIATIVES

Beginning in 2001, Active Voice fueled social change on issues ranging from childbirth to the Supreme Court, from apartheid in South Africa to Agent Orange in Vietnam. AV took films further, embedding them into the ongoing work of social movements, and assembling a roster of powerful stories that continue to spark new alliances and keep the issues and heroes in the public spotlight.
