Open Call: Share Your Stories of Hattie Carthan for a New Documentary
We are excited to announce that we are producing a documentary honoring the extraordinary life and legacy of Hattie Carthan, a beloved community activist and environmental pioneer who dedicated her life to improving the quality of life in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.

Participated in her community gardening initiatives. Did you volunteer at one of her gardens, learn from her, or benefit from the food grown there?
Were influenced by Hattie Carthan's philosophy of self-sufficiency and community activism. How did her example inspire you?
