"When We Gather"

Return to the full menu of María Magdalena Campos-Pons: Sea and Self interpretive materials

When We Gather celebrates the historic achievements of women, whose efforts led in 2020 to the election of the first female Vice President of the United States. During a time of seemingly unbridgeable division, the film calls for women to usher in unity while celebrating the elemental role that they played during that election season--and throughout history--in bringing sweeping change to our country.

When We Gather is performed by María Magdalena Campos-Pons, Okwui Okpokwasili, LaTasha N. Nevada Diggs, Dell Marie Hamilton, Jana Harper, Lisa E. Harris, and Samita Sinha. The film is directed by Codie Elaine Oliver (Black Love, OWN).
